The Nature Conservancy has partnered with a San Francisco-area startup called DroneDeploy that will provide a free app to drone owners for consistency. The app will provide automated flight patterns at the touch of a screen while cloud-based technology will make managing so much data feasible, said Ian Smith, a business developer for the company.

"When you get big winter storm surge like they want to document, you tend to lose a lot of beach," he said. "In a way, it's like doing a documentary on the future. It'll show you what your beaches will look like in 100 years."
Come on over to the Mid-Atlantic right now and I'll show you your Beach Future.
There'll always be beaches, but beaches move due to longshore sand transport. Especially barrier island beaches. It's the permanent human settlements that are doomed.

So that's where our pizza went!

Yeah, my relatives at Bethany "Beach" are a bit sad, being as how it's kinda gone.
| Yeah, it's Bad Bad. | There's more to come with the astronomical high tides continuing into today. | The southern New Jersey coastal towns are continuing to get hammered too. |
It's all heartbreaking, especially if you love the coast. Horrible storms are the new normal now.
Yeah, but aren't beaches like (smaller) freshwater lakes, in that they're all eventually doomed even without human intervention?
