A Geological Service for Europe: building trust through interdisciplinary and i...
Hollis, Julie; Calcagno, Philippe; Bertrand, Guillaume; de Oliveira, Daniel Pipa Soares; Negrel, Philippe; Díaz-Martínez, Enrique; La Vigna, FrancescoABSTRACT: Geology encompasses all of the Earth sciences and thus is multidisciplinary. It does not respect geopolitical borders, so requires teamwork across disciplines and between nations. Applying geological solutions to climate change increasingly requires transdisciplinary teamwork. This extends well beyond the geosciences to inform on issues of universal concern, e.g., deployment of renewable energy, manag...
Mapping and understanding Earth: Open access to digital geoscience data and kno...
Hinsby, Klaus; Négrel, Philippe; de Oliveira, Daniel Pipa Soares; Barros, Renata; Venvik, Guri; Ladenberger, Anna; Griffioen, Jasper; Piessens, KrisABSTRACT: Open access to harmonised digital data describing Earth’s surface and subsurface holds immense value for society. This paper highlights the significance of open access to digital geoscience data ranging from the shallow topsoil or seabed to depths of 5 km. Such data play a pivotal role in facilitating endeavours such as renewable geoenergy solutions, resilient urban planning, supply of critical raw ma...
Role of Geological Surveys of Europe in landslide monitoring
Auflič, Mateja Jemec; Herrera, Gerardo; Mateos, Rosa María; Poyiadji, Eleftheria; Quental, Lídia; Severine, Bernardie; Peternel, Tina; Podolszki, LaszloABSTRACT: This work was developed by the Earth Observation and Geohazards Expert Group from EGS and provides an overview of landslide monitoring techniques from 2005 to 2021. Based on the questionnaire, the following objectives were set: (1) to identify the type of monitored landslides, (2) to identify the landslide monitoring techniques, (3) to identify the spatial resolution, temporal resolution, and status o...
Landslide monitoring techniques in the Geological Surveys of Europe
Auflič, Mateja Jemec; Herrera, Gerardo; Mateos, Rosa María; Poyiadji, Eleftheria; Quental, Lídia; Severine, Bernardie; Peternel, Tina; Podolszki, LaszloABSTRACT: Landslide monitoring is a mandatory step in landslide risk assessment. It requires collecting data on landslide conditions (e.g., areal extent, landslide kinematics, surface topography, hydrogeometeorological parameters, and failure surfaces) from different time periods and at different scales, from site-specific to local, regional, and national, to assess landslide activity. In this analysis, we coll...
Pan-European geological data, information, and knowledge for a resilient, susta...
Hollis, Julie; Bricker, Stephanie; Čápová, Dana; Hinsby, Klaus; Krenmayr, Hans-Georg; Negrel, Phillippe; de Oliveira, Daniel Pipa SoaresABSTRACT: Many fields of research relevant to climate-change-related policy are grounded in geological sciences – far more than is generally recognised by the public or policy makers. These fields include management of marine environments, urban development, groundwater, landslide risk, understanding the geochemistry of soils and water, and securing raw materials. Through the concerted collaborative efforts, ov...

Landslides monitoring techniques review in the Geological Surveys of Europe
Auflič, Mateja Jemec; Herrera, Gerardo; Mateos, Rosa María; Poyiadji, Eleftheria; Quental, Lídia; Severine, Bernardie; Peternel, Tina; Podolszki, LaszloABSTRACT: Landsliding is the downslope movement of surface material under the force of gravity, initiated when gravitational and other types of shear stresses within the slope exceed the shear strength of the material that forms the slope. Often, landslides pose a physical and environmental threat to communities living in landslide-prone areas. While much landslide research focuses on monitoring techniques to d...

Earth Observation in support of sustainable mining by the Geological Surveys of...
Kopačková, Veronika; Herrera, Gerardo; Poyiadji, Eleftheria; Przyłucka, Maria; Quental, Lídia; Salehi, SaraABSTRACT: Current and emerging Earth Observation (EO) technologies have the potential to provide regular top- surface compositional information with a high temporal rate and at high spatial resolution. Earth Observation working group (EOEG) under the EuroGeoSurveys (EGS) has been working on a topic how different type of EO data can be utilized to assess mineral resources as well as to monitor mining impacts and...
