ALS and UAV survey

ALS and UAV survey

Towards the end of September, a simultaneous survey of the glacier forefield was taken from the helicopter and drone. Laser scanning was performed from a scanner mounted to the helicopter. These recordings covering a large part of the Jamtal and the glaciers were carried out by the project partner of KU Eichstätt. Right after, the sediment levels of the glacier forefield were recorded again with the UAV. The comparative data set serves as a basis for the evaluation of changes in the glacial and proglacial area and for the comparison of over surface roughness detected from the respective methods.
