INTEGRATED SURVEY FOR QUARRIES MONITORING

Domenica COSTANTINO, Maria Giuseppa ANGELINI

ABSTRACT: In Puglia region the activities of survey and georeferencing in the monitoring of quarries are regulated with the executive decree D.D. 38/DIR/2012. The topographic operations required concern the territorial framework and the detailed topographic survey for geometrically defining the site and the calculation of the amounts of extracted material. In order to meet the above-mentioned requirements with a continued monitoring activity, the authors have carried out a integrated surveying procedure which, beginning with operations and activities during the initial phase relative to 2012, has permitted, in later phases, work only in the area involved in excavation, and the verification over time of their global variations. This allowed the georeferencing and timereferencing of the 3D models with a resolution consistent with the required scale of representation.
