The Geographical Institute "Jovan Cvijić" SASA is involved in the project "Geomorphological interpretation of photogrammetry and laser scanning data in the study of torrential basins", which lasts 48 months. The implementation of the project in Serbia is financed by the Ministry of Science, Technological Development and Innovation of the Republic of Serbia.
The multilateral project brings together 6 academic and research organizations from Serbia, Bulgaria, France and the Czech Republic. The project focuses on the analysis of sediment granulation and orientation using classic and modern methods employing UAS (Unmanned Aerial System) and Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) technologies. The general goal of the project is to support the investigation of torrential phenomena using multisensory methods and the mapping of hydro-geomorphological risks of torrential floods and debris flows in the watersheds of hilly-mountainous areas.
