Description

This is the dataset related to the back analysis of the 2015 rockfall event from the Mel de la Niva Mountain near Evolène village, Valais canton, Switzerland. It includes the digital surface model and orthophoto generated by structure from motion photogrammetry, the video files of the event, the reconstructed 3D trajectories and blocks, the shapefiles containing the rockfall paths segments and deposited blocks, and the simulation results.
