Download or read book Earth Observation Applications to Landslide Mapping, Monitoring and Modeling written by Ionut Sandric and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2024-11-15 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earth Observation Applications to Landslide Mapping, Monitoring and Modelling: Cutting-edge Approaches with Artificial Intelligence, Aerial and Satellite Imagery focuses on the applications of drone and satellite imagery for mapping landslides. Topics covered include the use of ultra-high aerial imagery, obtained with drones, for mapping and predicting landslide activity (like runoff, volume displacement, exposure to risk, etc.). Subjects related to EO data assimilations into landslide hazard prediction models are also included. The primary aim of this book is to advance the scientific understanding and application of technologies to address a variety of fields related to landslide mapping and monitoring.Because of the intensification of the catastrophic events in the last 20 years, landslide monitoring gained considerable interest from the geoscience community. This book will be beneficial for the postgraduates, PhD research scholars, professors and scientists, geospatial experts, modelers, oceanography scientists and conservation communities, environmental consultants, big data compilers, and computing experts. - Recent developments in landslide monitoring and mapping algorithms - Provides clear and detailed case studies and methods that can be easily replicated and implemented in landslide monitoring systems - Provides detailed methods for applying research to landslide monitoring and mapping
