We are glad to announce that our next PhDTalks Seminar will be held on Thursday 29^th November in Room 3.1.4, from 6:15 pm to 7:15 pm CET. 

PhDTalks is a series of seminars and discussions between PhD students. The events are aimed at providing a place to network and get in contact with many of the projects developed in our department. 

Speaker Francesco Ioli will talk about “Low-cost Stereo Photogrammetry and Deep Learning for 4D Monitoring of an Alpine Glacier”. 

Abstract:
Photogrammetry is a widely assessed tool for geomorphological 3D monitoring, expecially in hardly accessible areas. In this PhD talk, a low-cost image-based stereoscopic monitoring system, developed and installed on the Belvedere Glacier (Italian Alps), is presented. By taking a pair of stereo-images every day, the system is able to detect short-term 3D movement of the glacier. In August 2022, during the warm and dry 2022 summer, a glacier retreat of ~2.5 m in 30 days was estimated.

At the end of each event a small refreshment funded by the department will be available. 

These events are self-organised by PhD students and speakers are chosen on a voluntary basis.
