This document presents the “Guidelines for Harmonizing Marine Litter Monitoring Methods Using Remote Sensing Technologies” (herein after referred to as the Guidelines).
It aims to further improve the comprehensiveness and efficiency of marine litter monitoring with remote sensing technologies (platforms, sensors, and image analysis).
The Guidelines consist of 3 parts: the “main body” provides a general overview of the monitoring/research methods of marine litter using various remote sensing technologies. The “Annex” is about details of monitoring methodology for each technology (individual platform and the corresponding image analysis), and the “Appendix” presents the results of a demonstration project conducted to ensure the practicality of the methodology in the Annex. The Appendix and Annex of ver.1.0 are dedicated for UAV as platform and the image analysis......
