Landslides represent major natural hazards, which cause every year significant loss of lives
and damages to buildings, properties and lifelines. In the last decades, a significant increase …

Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) is one of the most promising surveying techniques for
rockslope characterization and monitoring. Landslide and rockfall movements can be …

Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) provides high-resolution point clouds of the topography and
new TLS instruments with ranges exceeding 300 m or even 1000 m are powerful tools for …

Snow depth observation in potentially dangerous avalanche-starting zones is important for
avalanche prediction and dimensioning of permanent protection measures. The possible …

Digital elevation models (DEM) are widely used to determine characteristics of mass
movement processes such as accumulation and deposition of material, volume estimates or …

This case study deals with a rock face monitoring in urban areas using a Terrestrial Laser
Scanner. The pilot study area is an almost vertical, fifty meter high cliff, on top of which the …

Abstract Four-dimensional (4D) topographic point clouds contain information on surface
change processes and their spatial and temporal characteristics, such as the duration …

This article explores whether the use of LiDAR data in detecting transport network
obstructions shortens the time required to reach disaster sites. It presents a method for doing …

Adverse ground behavior events, such as convergence and ground falls, pose critical risks
to underground mine safety and productivity. Today, monitoring of such failures is primarily …

Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS), widely known as light detection and ranging (LiDAR)
technology, is increasingly used to provide highly detailed digital terrain models (DTM) with …
