Lecture
This lecture discusses the impact of a massive avalanche at Crutchant on January 28, which destroyed a significant portion of the forest at Sommodo. The students faced challenges in planning drone flights, data acquisition, and processing to estimate the avalanche volume. They manually produced the necessary data and created precise 3D models of the terrain for forest management and detailed analysis using artificial intelligence. The urgent need for avalanche mapping was driven by safety concerns, forest management, and tourism. The accurate 2D map helped identify damage locations and plan future safety measures, ensuring the success of the security operation.
