- ERODYN: Drone-based laser scanning for erosion monitoring Fig. 1: ULS system set up and flight at a 48-ha test site in the Dolomites (Italy). Within the ERODYN project, we are using a drone (the RIEGL RiCOPTER system) equipped with the VUX-1LR laser scanner to produce high resolution 3D point clouds and derive detailed digital terrain models for automated geomorphological analyses. The aim […] (2020-09-22 08:39:45)
- ERODYN: How does vegetation influence the susceptibility of grassland slopes towards shallow erosion? Vegetation plays (amongst other factors) an important role for the stability of slopes near their surface. Not only woody vegetation (i.e. shrubs and trees) but also herbaceous vegetation (dominating grasslands) can enhance the resistance of soil against shallow erosion. Being to some extent controllable via land management (in contrast to other factors, such as topography […] (2020-09-08 10:01:38)
