| Resumen: |
The recent advances in both the usability and sensors in drone technology allow for an increasing integration of such data in the GEM programme. The ability to combine spatially distributed snapshots in time from drones with existing long time series of timelapse images from fixed cameras constitutes a highly flexible source of spatial monitoring data. The general character of this data can support research activities across the GEM sub-programmes, and allows for capturing the timing and magnitude of e. g. extreme events. Here we demonstrate the use of drones to quantify riverbed erosion resulting from an extreme glacial lake outburst and rain events. |
