Thesis Abstract
Abstract
**
This study focuses on conducting a coastal vulnerability assessment using Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data. Coastal areas are particularly susceptible to environmental changes, including sea level rise and coastal erosion. LiDAR technology offers high-resolution elevation data, enabling detailed analysis of coastal topography and landform dynamics. Through the integration of LiDAR data with geospatial analysis techniques, this research aims to identify vulnerable coastal areas, assess their susceptibility to erosion and inundation, and prioritize adaptation and mitigation measures for coastal resilience.
