Análisis de campañas de vehículos aéreos no tripulados (VANT) y SIG en el monitoreo de movimientos de ladera. Caso de estudio: Yanacocha

Abstract

Abstract:This study analyzes the geomorphological changes affecting the movement of a slope located in the Yanacocha sector, on the Loja-Zamora road. To this end, a network of strategic control points was designed within the study area. Satellite navigation (GNSS) and photogrammetry techniques using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) were applied to measure displacements and their speeds. Over a period of 178 days, two monitoring sessions were conducted, during which photogrammetric and coordinate data were collected. From this information, Digital Surface Models were generated, allowing the identification of affected areas and observation of how the slope's behavior evolves over time. The results confirm that this methodology is effective for evaluating slope displacement and understanding its dynamics. This information is fundamental for preventing risks and making sound decisions in the management of areas susceptible to landslides.
