39. ACCURACY OF DETERMINATION OF THE RUNNING OF THE SHORE LINE ON ORTHOPHOTOMAP
The ways of determining the course of the coastline of natural watercourses are regulated by the Water Law Act. Pursuant to the Act, lands covered with inland waters flowing within the coastline are owned by the State Treasury. The coastline of natural watercourses is the boundary of the property defining the extent of property rights, which is why its correct indication is so important. The accuracy of measuring situational details that identify the course of the shoreline in the field is regulated by the Regulation on technical standards. This accuracy varies depending on the method for determining the course of the shoreline. As part of this work, the course of the coastline of natural watercourses with regulated and unregulated channels flowing through the Świętokrzyskie and Małopolskie Voivodeships in Poland was analyzed to investigate whether the cartometric measurement of the shoreline performed on an orthophotomap can replace the measurement of situational details in the field.
