Lidar for Analysis of Hydraulic Risk Territories

This paper investigates a possible use of the technique of LIDAR topographic survey for updating existing hydraulic models for the calculation of Hydraulic head for risk areas. The study, in particular, tends to assess the benefits to be gained from new methods of LIDAR detection comparing calculations and simulations of updated models with those obtained from existing models and also highlighting the critical issues of the use made for hydraulic analysis.
