Cover Story: In coastal regions of Western Europe, the polychaete Sabellaria alveolata (Linné) builds large intertidal reefs of several hectares on soft-bottom substrates that host a high biodiversity and provide ecological functions, such as protection against coastal erosion. A multispectral UAV-based structure-from-motion photogrammetric survey was carried out to map the complex three-dimensional bioconstructions and the epibionts impacting the reef (oysters, mussels, green macroalgae) at a very high resolution (few cm per pixel). This survey was carried out in October 2020 over the second-largest known European reef on Noirmoutier Island (France). Both topographic and multispectral information was used to derive new variables and indices that can be relevant to describe the health status of large intertidal reefs and further help stakeholders in managing these protected habitats.
