Investigating the Impact of Frost Heave Monitoring on Arctic Region Infrastructure

Funding Agency: Department of Defense

Abstract: This study aims to investigate the capability of LiDAR sensors to characterize frost heaves and how the difference in water content of soil affects the frost heave. The research implements (a) handheld LiDAR during the laboratory data collection and (b) handheld + mobile LiDAR (vehicle-based) during field data collection, to capture the soil surface geometry and detect areas with potential heaving
