This study discusses Remote Sensing and GIS based impact assessment on the coastal resources coupled with model simulation. The oil spill impact was estimated through spill simulation and incorporated environmental sensitivity index as level of concern to assess the impact. The best guess of the trajectory simulation was used to assess the spatial distribution and concentration of oil on the coastal region to notify the area and resources to analyze the impact of the spilled oil. Under the simulation of weathering process, it is estimated that 94% oil is stranded on the shoreline. S. Arockiaraj1*, Mary Angelin1, M. C. There has been attempt to document the oil on the water surface using remote John Milton1, G. Bhaskaran2 sensing data collected by Sentinel 1A, 2A and Landsat/OLI and trajectory of the released oil. Near real time detection of oil trajectory and quantification using 1PG & Research Department of remote sensing data help with possible oil landing information. The potential Advanced Zoology and Biotechnology, Loyola College, effect of oil on species was assessed through Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon Chennai 600034.
