    Project Details

    For numerous years, National Chin Nan University, situated in Taiwan, a nation prone to earthquakes, has been at the forefront of landslide research under the guidance of Professor Kuo-Lung Wang. Tracking land displacement and predicting potential landslide sites are crucial endeavors, particularly in densely populated urban areas. Professor Wang recently elucidated his team's methodology for monitoring landslide displacement in an article titled "High-Resolution LiDAR Digital Elevation Model Referenced Landslide Observation with Differential Interferometric Radar, GNSS, and Underground Measurements," showcasing the utilization of ENVI® and ENVI SARscape software from NV5 Geospatial.
