ABSTRACT

The application of comprehensive methods of landslide movement monitoring (using scanning tacheometry, laser scanning, photogrammetry—including the use of drones) allows the collection of copious quantities of measurement data. While processing the material one should develop internally coherent and complete data using all the obtained information. The landslide monitoring in the area of Kadzielnia in Kielce has been performed for the last two years. The paper presents the methods of processing, its results with a particular emphasis put on solutions based on statistics and geostatistics. These methods allow the assessment of the risk likelihood and the ratio of random and non-random factors affecting the distribution of changes in the landslide slope shape. The obtained results should be considered as provisional. At the same time, they indicate the advisability of combining different methods of observation and analysis to obtain practical, useful results which are relevant to the protection of the environment and its qualities.
