Abstract
Landslides pose significant threats to human lives and infrastructure, making accurate monitoring essential for understanding and preventing these events. Photomonitoring, utilizing optical/multispectral sensors and digital image processing techniques, has emerged as a valuable tool for studying and monitoring landslide deformation processes. This article explores the application of photomonitoring in landslide studies, presenting three diverse case studies showcasing its efficacy and versatility. The technique allows for continuous, automated, and real-time monitoring of landslide events, providing valuable insights into displacement patterns and deformation trends. To enhance its usability, the software IRIS was developed to analyze data acquired from various platforms and sensors. This innovative solution promises to improve landslide management, contributing to better comprehension, prevention, and mitigation strategies, ultimately ensuring the safety of communities and infrastructure in landslide-prone regions.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
