POGGIO BALDI LANDSLIDE NATURAL LABORATORY

Our goal is to make the experimental landslide monitoring site of Poggio Baldi a proper fundamental standard natural laboratory of total-monitoring aimed at hydrogeological risk management and assessment... The Poggio Baldi landslide is one of the largest rock and debris landslide phenomena in the Emilia-Romagna Apennines. With an estimated volume of about 4 million cubic meters, the Poggio Baldi landslide can be considered a still active landslide. In the last century it has had two main episodes of activation known and documented, dating back to 25 March 1914 and 18 March 2010... The Department of Earth Sciences of Sapienza University of Rome, in collaboration with CERI and NHAZCA Srl founded the Poggio Baldi natural laboratory with a mission: testing innovative remote sensing monitoring tools in a challenging natural area and employ them for landslide hazard assessment.

Also known as: landslide monitoring, The Poggio Baldi Landslide Natural Laboratory
