  Information - NH3.11 Terrain analysis using DTM and landslides (Poster Only Session)

Event Information
Terrain analysis is one of the new challenges of the hazard assessment, knowing the rapid increase in availability and in precision of DEM. Geology plays a great role on geomorphology, a fine analysis of DEM permits to outline the structure and geology of a poorly known region and also to systematically analyze known regions. It also leads to the developments of new methods. Several landslide and erosion areas can be detected by simple or more sophisticated DEM analysis. Modeling of slope processes, landslides and erosion are dependent on the DEM quality, which is one of the issues of the DEM use. DEM analysis is a basic challenge for the future research of erosion processes study and hazard assessment.
