Terrestrial Scanning / Topography & Monitoring

Glacier Monitoring Sulzbachkees, Alps, Austria
Monitoring Campaign 2008 using LPM-321 12.09.2008

The monitoring time series of this glacier-field started in 2001.  The first three measurement campaigns were realized by the use of LMS-Z210 and LMS-Z210ii. Due to the fact of the enormous decrease of the ice-shield within the last years, hiking-access on the glacier itself is not longer possible. The only reachable measuring-points are far away from the glacier. No instrument of our Z-series can realize such long measuring-distances. For this reason we have used in August, 2008 our new LPM-321, which offers a maximum range up to 6000m. The glacier-field was scanned from two different positions. The resulting DEM is covering an enormous area of more than 5 km².
