Landslide mapping is a crucial activity for many studies in the field of geomorphology. The purpose of this Short Course is to share criteria for the interpretation of remote sensing images such as stereoscopic aerial photographs and LiDAR derived images. The interpretation criteria will be defined and applied in specific hands-on practical examples in a collaborative environment using StereoPhotoMaker, a free and simple yet powerful 3D vision system that can be easily installed on any computer. Cyan-magenta anaglyph glasses will be provided to all participants. Line drawing will be done in QGIS. Simple landslide mapping tasks, increasing in complexity, will allow discussing and sharing ideas and opinions, as well as getting a visual idea of the expected variability behind different types of landslide inventories. This Short Course does not require any specific training or experience, so it is open to early-career researchers, students, and curious geoscientists.
Disclaimer: please note that not everyone can perceive stereoscopic 3D. Check this by simply searching for cyan-magenta stereoscopic anaglyphs online. Cyan-magenta anaglyph 3D glasses are necessary.
