3D slope stability analysis in TSLOPE using data from PointStudio
We have used a point cloud dataset from a UAV survey of Belmont Quarry to provide the topographic and structural geology data required for a 3D slope stability analysis. The point cloud data were loaded into PointStudio, a topographic surface was calculated, and discontinuities picked using PointStudio geotechnical procedures. TSLOPE was connected to the PointStudio database so that we could access the PointStudio data tree and directly copy the required surfaces across to TSLOPE.
