Optical processing can assist to define bathymetry:

Shallow flows with relatively transparent water, captured by 4K camera drones and filtered by computer, can help to define the bathymetry without more expensive data acquisition. See this example nearby "Sotos del Ebro, Alfaro".

Monitoring plastic litter and debris:

Drones make easier to recognize surface speed patterns and debris storage areas in order to clean up plastic litter , as this image of Alcala de Ebro groynes shows. See more at The Ocean Clean Up project and https://doi.org/10.3390/rs11172045
