- Abstract:
- The paper describes the preliminary results of ground-based and remote sensing techniques applied to monitor the displacements and seepage flow of a bituminous faced rockfill dam located on the Aspromonte mountain in southern Italy (Menta Dam). The analysis and interpretation of the seepage flow highlighted the overall good performance of the dam during the first impoundment. Moreover, the application of Differential Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar technique for measuring the dam’s displacements produced fairly good results, highlighting the effectiveness of remote sensing techniques for geotechnical infrastructures.
