Nik Hondartzak – Coastal Videometry Monitoring Tool
Nik Hondartzak is a coastal videometry monitoring tool developed by the Gipuzkoako Foru Aldundia – Diputación Foral Gipuzk. It is designed to monitor the coastal sandbanks in Gipuzkoa, Spain, in order to better manage the beaches and protect them from the impacts of climate change.
The Gipuzkoa sandbanks are a valuable natural heritage, and the KostaSystem coastal videometry system developed by the AZTI technology center plays a crucial role in their protection. This tool allows for the improvement of beach management, as well as the prevention of climate change impacts on the coastline. Additionally, it aims to enhance the safety and well-being of beach users.
Nik Hondartzak provides citizens with valuable information to enjoy the beaches responsibly and safely during the summer season. However, it is important to note that the occupancy ranges and capacity levels displayed are indicative and it is the competent authorities who have the final say in opening or closing beach access or providing relevant recommendations based on additional criteria.
