Abstract
The coastal areas of the Northwest Peloponnese suffer degradation due to the sea action and other natural and humaninduced causes. Changes in beaches, ports, and other man-made constructions need to be assessed, both after severe events and on a regular basis, to build models that can predict the evolution in the future. Thus, reliable spatial data acquisition is a critical process for the identification of the coastline and the broader coastal zones for geologists and other scientists involved in the study of coastal morphology. In the frame of INTERREG bilateral call, a project titled «Development of management Tools and diRectives for immediate protection of bIodiversity in coasTal areas affected by sea erOsion and establishment of appropriate eNvironmental control systems (TRITON) is being executed. Three laboratories of the University of Patras execute multidisciplinary monitoring surveys both onshore and offshore and the present paper describes those activities.
