This work presents the development of a three-dimensional (3D) model of an outcrop of the Corumbataí Formation (Permian, Paraná Basin, Brazil) using Structure from Motion -Multi-View Stereo (SfM-MVS) technique in order to provide a structural analysis of clastic dikes cutting through siltstone layers. While traditional photogrammetry requires the user to input a series of parameters related to the camera orientation and its characteristics (such as focal distance), in SfM-MVS the scene geometry, camera position and orientations are automatically determined by a bundle adjustment, an iterative procedure based on a set of overlapping images. It is considered a low-cost technique in terms of hardware and software, also being able to provide point density and accuracy on par to the ones obtained withTerrestrial Laser Scanning. The results acquired on this research have good agreement with previous works, yielding a NNW main orientation for the dikes measured in the field and on the 3D model. The development of this work showed that SfM-MVS use and practice on geosciences still needs more studies on the optimization of the involved parameters (such as camera orientation, image overlap and angle of illumination), which, when accomplished, will result in less processing time and more accurate models.
Agradeço primeiramente aos meus pais, Rose e Roberto, por sempre apoiarem e incentivarem minhas ideias, por mais malucas que elas me parecessem. Nunca poderei agradecer o suficiente por tudo. Ao professor Ginaldo Campanha, por aceitar me orientar neste projeto, e mais do que isso, por me ensinar muito durante esta parceria. Agradeço a confiança, a atenção, a paciência e todo o apoio dedicado ao longo destes dois anos.
Gravitational mass movements are natural destructive processes that can cause enormous losses. New technologies such as laser scanning and remotely piloted aircrafts (RPA) along with Structure-from-Motion-Multi-View Stereo (SfM-MVS) photogrammetry technique provides an alternative to conventional mapping methods. A hill with a landslide located in the city of Cunha -SP was surveyed by terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) and RPA-based SfM-MVS. SfM-MVS point cloud covers a larger area and point distribution is more homogeneous while TLS points have an uneven distribution. Small distances between point clouds were predominant in the vicinity of the landslide and greater differences only occurred on the scene edges. DEMs (Digital Elevation Model) were generated from both point clouds. The volume of material displaced from the upper part (scarp) of the landslide was 70.05 m 3 for the TLS DEM and 77.15 m 3 for the SfM-MVS while the volume of material accumulated in the lower part (body) of the landslide was 66.85 m 3 and 62.68 m 3 respectively. Slope and roughness were calculated and showed very similar results for TLS and SfM-MVS.
