This paper presents the monitoring of an eroding phenomenon (gully) near Ciurila, Cluj County, Romania, using UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) and GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) technologies. In this sense, the monitoring results through sustainable and non-invasive technologies are presented, following four cycles of observations, carried out between June 2019 and April 2021. The paper aims to present the advantages and limitations of such a study, as well as the importance of monitoring erosion phenomena...

Constructions extending over large areas or distances raise problems regarding their setting out, because these elements are determined in the official projection of Romania, namely the 1970 Stereographic map projection. For the territory of our country, this produces distortions from -25 cm/km to approximately +64 cm/km in terms of distances and between -5 sq. m/ha and +12.76 sq. m/ha in terms of areas, depending on the distance from the projection pole and, implicitly, from the circle of zero distortions. For th...

The paper presents a quality evaluation of the kinematic model concerning the relative height movement of the Earth-s crust that refers to the territory of the Republic of Croatia. This kinematic model enables determination of vertical displacements and movement speeds of discrete points on the Earth-s crust. So far, the quality of the model has been rated only for certain parts of the Croatian territory, but this paper shows the results of the model-s quality evaluation for the entire territory of the Republic of...

Underground mining operation in salt deposits requires special control over rock mass stability. Changes in stress within the rock mass cause gradual convergence of underground workings. A slow convergence process with a complex spatiotemporal distribution requires the measurements with high accuracy, which is carry out on a well-planned spatial distribution of observation network. The aim of the study was to present the procedure of designing and implementing observations of convergence in salt caverns within a s...
