DEM generation of rock slope using laser scanning and digital stereo photogrammetry

There are some reports which are about measuring the discontinuity from 3D model of rock surface. To generate 3D model is mainly based on remote sensing technique like laser scanning and digital stereo photogrammetry. It is obtained the DEM of the rock slope using above techniques in this study, and examined a suitability and improvement of the photogrammetry for the rock slope by overlap the DEM. It seems that accuracy of DEM generated by photogrammetry technique is influenced by the geometry of rock and type of joint.
