1) Collect High Resolution Topography data:
• Establish Common vertical datum to integrate Water level and Topography
data.
• Setting up image reference points (GCPs)
• UAV High-resolution topography mapping
2) Infrastructure mapping
3) Shoreline Change Analysis
4) Extreme Water Level Analysis + SLR Scenarios
5) Wrap data into a GIS package (i.e. Pac-Safe)

• Temporary Tide Gauge:• A minimum of 35 days record• 25 hours manual observation
• 7 Bench Marks• Each BM to be surveyed 2 x 6 hrs
• Common Vertical Datum achieved by Levelling between BM and Tide Gauge
• Using an unmanned aircraft system, TRIMBLE UX5
• UAV flying at 75m above ground with 90% overlap, collecting data at a 2.4cm resolution.
• Ground Control Points minimum of 5 per flight
• Data output using TBC : Ortho-photo, Point clouds and a Digital Surface model (DSM)

• Include Population as Exposure data• Include SetBack Zone Layer
• Keep progressing on PACSAFE
• Critical Issue with Tide Gauge Reference Datum.
• Hazard layer do not consider shoreline response from SLR.

• Established a control network for London • 6 new BM observed twice for 6 hours • Data send to AUSPOS Online Processing Service. • BM used to collect Ground Control Point for flights and for RTK
survey.• RTK points collected is further used to verify accuracy of cloud
points produced by photogrammetry.
