High-resolution 3-D mapping using terrestrial laser scanning as a tool for geomorphological and speleogenetical studies in caves: An example from the Lessini mountains (North Italy)
Terrestrial laser scanning has been used to survey morphologies in a cave. TLS data have been used to make volumetric calculations of cave voids. TLS point clouds allow to distinguish cave wall macro- and micromorphologies. Different cave morphologies are related to successive speleogenetic stages. Condensation-corrosion processes are very important in shaping the cave voids.
