Soft Copy Photogrammetry to Measure Shore Plat- Form Erosion on Decadal Time Scales
نویسندگان
چکیده
Shore platform erosion is considered a driving mechanism for cliff recession on many rocky coasts and, in the vicinity of sea defence structures, a threat to their stability, yet the spatial pattern of platform erosion, as well as the rate of lowering, is poorly documented. Measurements based on techniques such as the micro-erosion metre or laser scanner, though highly accurate for short time scales and specific locations, are difficult to extrapolate in space and time. They also fail to record meso-scale changes such as block removal. This paper describes a technique to quantify spatial and temporal changes and presents first results.

بررسی دو روش فتوگرامتری و زبری سنج لیزری به منظور اندازهگیری میکروتوپوگرافی خاک
At present, soil surface characteristics (SSC) are recognised as key parameters controlling infiltration rates, runoff generation and erosion. Microtopography of surface among SSC is the main one. The work presented in this paper is based on a set of digital elevation models (DEMs) supplied by two different methods: Laser roughness-meter and photogrammetry method. We used two maquettes. The use...

متن کاملTime scale bias in erosion rates of glaciated landscapes
Deciphering erosion rates over geologic time is fundamental for understanding the interplay between climate, tectonic, and erosional processes. Existing techniques integrate erosion over different time scales, and direct comparison of such rates is routinely done in earth science. On the basis of a global compilation, we show that erosion rate estimates in glaciated landscapes may be affected b...
متن کاملClose range digital photogrammetry for the measurement of erosion to historic adobe structures
Unbaked earth structures, like adobe structures are found in abundance throughout the world. Like most structures, they are subject to deterioration through time. The preservation of historic adobe structures requires careful attention and evaluation of several factors, but material erosion is the main concern. In order to calculate the amount of erosion, accurate measurement of the structures ...

An objective in vivo measurement technique for assessing the material properties of soft tissue would be a valuabe tool in diagnosing dermatological pathologies. In order to make advancements in this field, a new hand-held device was designed to measure the stiffness of soft materials. The device measures the reaction forces experienced by the soft tissue under constant indentation deformations...
