PacIOOS Beach Camera 001: Waikiki, Oahu, Hawaii
Listed in NOAA IOOS PacIOOS (Pacific Islands Ocean Observing System) at the University of Hawaii (UH)
A digital camera on top of the Sheraton Waikiki hotel was used to photograph the shoreline of Waikiki beach along the South Shore of the island of Oahu in the State of Hawaii.
Description
The oblique camera view presented here captures the shoreline leading southeast towards Diamond Head crater. It operated for over 4.5 years between February 5, 2009 and October 13, 2013.
Capturing hourly snapshots at a set vantage point during the local daytime hours of 6:00 AM or 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, these images are useful for tracking beach dynamics such as wave run-up, sand movement, and turbidity plumes over time. The camera was mounted on top of a 3 meter wall extending above the roof surface for a total height of 93 meters above ground level or 96 meters above mean sea level. See also beachcam_002 for an alternate camera view from the same location pointing directly downwards.
