From 09.07. to 11.07.2018 more work has been done at the Hochvogel peak. Members of the TUM Department of Geodesy and Photogrammetry took a detailed record of the summit area. Members of the Landslide Research Group carried out measurements in the…

The Landslide Research Group presented their research at the European Conference on Permafrost (EUCOP) in Chamonix, France, 23 June-07 July 2018. The conference covers all relevant aspects of permafrost research, engineering and outreach on a global…

On Friday the 15.06.2018 a fair weather window was used to geodetically measure the summit area and the summit ridge on the Hochvogel. In addition, the first measurements with a Gravimeter were carried out and more convergence lines were measured. In…

On 5. and 6.6. the first measurements of the year took place on the Hochvogel summit and preparations were made for the next larger measuring campaign. Seven members of the AlpSenseBench-Team hiked up to the top and worked on convergence…

The landslide mapping course is provided by the Landslide Research group, and introduces students to geological and geomorphic mapping techniques relevant to landslide hazard identification and civil construction. In addition to that, the students…

3D Reality Maps, involved in the AlpSenseBench project, developed a new 3D SFM-model of the Hochvogel (2592 m) summit. The model visualizes the structure of the instable top of the mountain. Video → https://vimeo.com/269587869
