Ambitious Air Photo Project Fights Development
5 November 2002 - 10:00am
An unprecendented project to photograph the entire California coastline and make it available on the Web is aimed at helping efforts to fight coastal threats like seawalls and development.
"In an unprecedented marriage of high technology and environmental activism, Adelman, a 39-year-old computer programmer from Santa Cruz County, has taken 7,000 aerial photographs of the California coastline -- one roughly every 500 feet. His quest, which could spell trouble for developers building illegal seawalls or blocking public beach access, is to photograph every inch of the state's 1,100-mile shoreline from Oregon to Mexico."
