Airborne- and terrestrial laser scanning are used in combination with digital airborne photogrammetry to monitor surface changes between 2009 and 2011 on rock glaciers and landslides at three mountain permafrost sites (Grabengufer, Schafberg and Flüela Pass) in the Swiss Alps. 3D surface changes detected through comparison of multitemporal laser scanning data, as well as horizontal creep rates...
