The coastal area is an area that has a dense population with a lot of human activities that occur there. Due to environmental changes and human activities, changes often occur in coastal areas ranging from erosion and sedimentation. Changes must continuously be monitored to plan countermeasures due to the occurring phenomena. This study aims to create a website-based application to monitor coastal areas. This study will use Landsat data 5,7,8, and 9 to see changes in coastal areas. The analysis can be provided from 1985 until recent data by integrating four Landsat satellites. The NDWI index (Normalized Difference Wetness Index) analyzes changes occurring in coastal areas and differentiates between water and land area. The analysis is not only in the form of changes that occur in coastal areas but also in time series analysis, and trends that occur at a point can be analyzed using land trend analysis. The resulting website based on Cloud Computation in Google Earth Engine can be seen at the link https://bit.ly/MonitoringPesisir. This website can automatically update, and users can choose the location to monitor. This research is expected to be used by policymakers to monitor and plan the development and regulation of coastal areas.
