Landforms. DOI: 10.1002\/esp.3493<\/p>\n<p>This manuscript presents a review on the application of a remote sensing technique (terrestrial laser scanning, TLS) to a rock slope characterization and monitoring. Key insights into the use of TLS in rock slope investigations include: (a) the capability of remotely obtaining the orientation of slope discontinuities, which constitutes a great step forward in rock mechanics; (b) the possibility to monitor rock slopes which allows not only the accurate quantification of rockfall rates across wide areas but also the spatio-temporal modelling of rock slope deformation with an unprecedented level of detail.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Further investigation<\/strong> on the development of new algorithms for point cloud filtering, segmentation, feature extraction, deformation tracking and change detection will significantly improve our understanding on how rock slopes behave and evolve.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Perspectives<\/strong> include the use of new 3D sensing devices and the adaptation of techniques and methods recently developed in other disciplines as robotics and 3D computer-vision to rock slope instabilities research.<\/p>\n<p>More information and full paper on <a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/esp.3493\/abstract\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the ESPL website<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abell\u00e1n, A., Oppikofer, T., Jaboyedoff, M., Rosser, N.
