A combined technique approach for the study of a landslide in the Calabria region

Ausilio Ernesto, Zimmaro Paolo
Abstract:
In the detection and monitoring of a landslide a large number of variables should be taken into account. Several techniques and approaches should be used to fully understand the phenomenon in order to facilitate landslide stabilization design especially for complex cases. In this paper the case history of the Gimigliano landslide (Southern Italy) is investigated taking advantage of a combinedtechnique approach based on conventional geotechnical measurements used together with modern technologies such as electromagnetic sensing techniques and electrical resistivity tomography. The application of this methodology shows that combining the information taken from the different techniques is possible to validate the measurements obtained by conventional and modern approaches and enhance the accuracy of each other.
