“…The latest advances in surveying technology, particularly that of 3D terrestrial laser scanning (TLS), give the opportunity to study damage and material decay using analysis of 3D point clouds generated by different instruments and techniques [2], [3]. Among them, TLS data are widely and successfully used for structural health monitoring in both civil engineering [4] and cultural heritage [5]. This paper focuses on detecting changes to a monument inflicted by climatic erosion, human activity, the spread of lichen, and the progress of archaeological excavations.…”

The paper describes the possibility of using 3D laser scans from two different surveying epochs for structural health monitoring. It uses the results of two particular projects-the 2006 3D laser scanning of Samiapata rock by the University of Arkansas and the 2016 3D laser scanning by the Laboratory of 3D Laser Scanning at Wrocław University of Science and Technology-and discusses the methods, results, and limitations of comparing them.

“…Among the rill erosion research, many types of rill erosion quantification methods have been applied, such as collecting sediment outflow at the flume end [12], a volumetric or volume replacement method [2,13,14], manual measurements of rills using photo images [1,15], photogrammetry methods [16][17][18][19], a terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) [5,[20][21][22][23], an airborne laser scanner (ALS) [24,25], and other remote-sensing technologies. In [12], laboratory erosion experiments were carried out in a two-dimensional tilting flume with a pre-forming rill before the rainfall application on the soil surface; then, rill and interrill erosion were assessed by flow measurements taken from the two outlets, corresponding to the rill and interrill area, at the end of the flume.…”

“…The application of the TLS technique in soil erosion and rill development evaluation can be found in laboratory, plot, and field studies [5,[20][21][22][23]. The study of the morphological characteristics of rill evolution was performed using laboratory soil pan rainfall simulations [5] and the TLS technique following [20].…”

“…The results show that soil erosion measured with TLS varies considerably when different data processing software is used, and the laser-scanning technique is applicable in measuring soil erosion at the plot scale when adequate calibration and spatial resolution are performed [21]. In field investigations of soil erosion using TLS [20,22,23], rill morphology and soil loss evaluation at the Masse experimental station in Italy were studied [20]. The triangulated irregular network model was used to quantify the eroded volume and rill morphological characteristics; corresponding manual measurements were also carried out using a profilometer [20].…”

“…A basin-scale assessment of riverbank erosion in Northern Italy was monitored, and the eroded and deposited volume in the surveyed area were measured using TLS [22]. The effects of TLS to analyze the intensity of soil erosion in a mountainous forest area with sufficient measurement stations are shown [23]. As the results indicate, choices of the coordinate system for the object or the scanner significantly influence the analysis of erosion phenomena when applying TLS in forested areas [23].…”

Topographies during the erosion process obtained from the single-stripe laser-scanning method may provide an accurate, but affordable, soil loss estimation based on high-precision digital elevation model (DEM) data. In this study, we used laboratory erosion experiments with a sloping flume, a rainfall simulator, and a stripe laser apparatus to evaluate topographic changes of soil surface and the erosion process. In the experiments, six slope gradients of the flume (5° to 30° with an increment of 5°) were used and the rainfall simulator generated a 30-min rainfall with the kinetic energy equivalent to 80 mm/h on average. The laser-scanned topography and sediment yield were collected every 5 min in each test. The difference between the DEMs from laser scans of different time steps was used to obtain the eroded soil volumes and the corresponding estimates of soil loss in mass. The results suggest that the collected sediment yield and eroded soil volume increased with rainfall duration and slope, and quantified equations are proposed for soil loss prediction using rainfall duration and slope. This study shows the applicability of the stripe laser-scanning method in soil loss prediction and erosion evaluation in a laboratory case study.

The main aim of this research was to determine the magnitude of geomorphologic changes within a section of a forest road. The research was carried out in the Lejowa Valley in the Tatra Mountains. The measurements of the surface of the road were performed using a RIEGL VZ-4000 terrestrial laser scanner (TLS). TLS models for 2017, 2018, and 2019 served as the basis for the determination of quantitative and spatial relief transformations. The net annual change on the studied road within the first period equaled −884 m3 ha−1 year−1, and for the second period −370 m3 ha−1 year−1. Changes across the accumulation fan ranged from −265 m3 ha−1 year−1 to +36 m3 ha−1 year−1. The average rate of erosion on the studied abandoned road is similar, and sometimes even greater than that on roads which are still in use. Our research shows that improper road location may lead to irreversible changes to the natural environment. The planning of a forest road must take into account natural conditions, otherwise progressive relief transformations may lead to significant surface changes and the road may be excluded from use.
