Skaloud, Jan; Vallet, Julien
  • Presented at: Joint International Symposium on Geospatial Theory, Processing and Applications, Ottawa (Canada), July 9-12
  • Published in: Proceedings
  • Publication date: 2002

This paper presents a self-contained, light and flexible mapping system that can be quickly deployed into inaccessible areas. Although designed to measure wind-transported snow volumes and the snow avalanche runoff over and experimental site, the system is suitable to any large-scale 3-D terrain mapping.
