A study on the use of planarity for quick identification of potential landslide hazard [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2015 In this study we focused on identifying a geomorphological feature that controls the location of landslides. The representation of the feature is based on a high-resolution digital elevation model derived from the airborne laser altimetry (LiDAR) and ...

Landslide Hazard Assessment for National Rail Network
Procedia Engineering, 2016 AbstractThere have been a number of high profile reports of landslides on the national rail network of Great Britain (comprising England, Scotland and Wales) over recent years. Events range in size from small wash out failures (St. Bees, Cumbria) to well publicised large failures causing major longer term disruption (Hatfield Colliery, South Yorkshire).
