Abstract

Automated Landslide Detection
Track: 3D and Lidar Data
Authors: Josh McLaughlin

Landslide detection has come to the forefront of the minds of government agencies, property owners, and utility companies as they attempt to minimize potential terrain failure damage and mitigate the effects of terrain failure events. Quantum Spatial has combined the accuracy and efficiency of LiDAR with the analytical tools of GIS to create predictive analytics to assess terrain failure potential and evaluate terrain failures to better inform planners and prepare disaster response efforts.
