Remote sensing based assessment of hazards from glacier lake outbursts: a case study in the Swiss Alps / Christian Huggel, Andreas Kääb, Wilfried Haeberli, Philippe Teysseire, Frank Paul.

Title: Remote sensing based assessment of hazards from glacier lake outbursts: a case study in the Swiss Alps / Christian Huggel, Andreas Kääb, Wilfried Haeberli, Philippe Teysseire, Frank Paul.
Author(s): Huggel, Christian.
Kääb, Andreas.
Haeberli, Wilfried.
Teysseire, Philippe.
Paul, Frank.
Date: 2002.
In: Canadian Geotechnical Journal. (2002.), Vol. 39(2) (2002)
Abstract: Aims to develop and evaluate remote sensing methods for assessing potential of glacier lake to produce outburst event, though not risk evaluation of possible events. Methods include channel indexing, data fusion and change detection, with each method meeting requirements of a certain scale level. Tests on outburst from moraine-dammed lake in Swiss Alps proved hopeful. Discusses decision criteria and applicable remote sensing techniques, recommending their systematic application.
