The input imagery comprises 5.8 m spatial resolution LISS-IV data with green, red, and near-infrared bands, supplemented by derived indices such as NDVI, Green–NIR ratio, and composite intensity to improve feature separability.</p> <p>The shapefile provides polygon representations of mapped sandy beaches across the Indian coastline and is projected in WGS 84 geographic coordinates (EPSG:4326).
