The purpose of this study is to present the results of shoreline monitoring for the period October 2006 - March 2008 of a beach, using the tools developed during the OpTIMAL project for video image processing. The study was carried out in Igea Marina, where a video monitoring station EVS-SVM was intalled in September 2006. During the period of observation the beach was widened by nourishment, and an intensive fi eld campaign was carried out for measuring waves and currents at the site by two ADCPs. The dynamics of the beach and its relationship to the forcing mechanisms of waves and tides are presented.
