Solifluction is a geomorphic process which is characteristic for hillslopes in (high-)mountain areas, primarily alpine periglacial areas and the arctic. The movement can reach millimetre-to-centimetre per year velocities, remaining well below the typical displacement mangitudes of other frequently monitored natural objects, such as landslides and glaciers. Hence, a better understanding of solifluction processes requires increased spatial and temporal resolution with relatively high measurement accuracy. To that end, we developed a workflow for TLS point cloud processing, providing a 3D vector field that can capture soil mass displacement due to solifluction with high fidelity. This is based on the common image-processing techniques of feature detection and tracking. The developed workflow is tested on a study area placed in Hohe Tauern range of the Austrian Alps with a prominent assemblage of solifluction lobes. The derived displacements were compared with the established geomonitoring approach with total station and signalized markers and point cloud deformation monitoring approaches. The comparison indicated that the achieved results were in the same accuracy range as the established methods, with an advantage of notably higher spatial resolution. This improvement allowed for new insights considering the solifluction processes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs13061192","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,21]],"date-time":"2021-03-21T23:47:41Z","timestamp":1616370461000},"page":"1192","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Increasing Spatio-Temporal Resolution for Monitoring Alpine Solifluction Using Terrestrial Laser Scanners and 3D Vector Fields"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7966-4322","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Christoph","family":"Holst","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Geodesy and Geoinformation, University of Bonn, 53115 Bonn, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jannik","family":"Jan\u00dfen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Geodesy and Geoinformation, University of Bonn, 53115 Bonn, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1302-4111","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Berit","family":"Schmitz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Geodesy and Geoinformation, University of Bonn, 53115 Bonn, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Martin","family":"Blome","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Geodesy and Geoinformation, University of Bonn, 53115 Bonn, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Malte","family":"Dercks","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Geodesy and Geoinformation, University of Bonn, 53115 Bonn, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Anna","family":"Schoch-Baumann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geography, University of Bonn, 53115 Bonn, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9448-9561","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jan","family":"Bl\u00f6the","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Environmental Social Sciences and Geography, University of Freiburg, 79085 Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lothar","family":"Schrott","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geography, University of Bonn, 53115 Bonn, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Heiner","family":"Kuhlmann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Geodesy and Geoinformation, University of Bonn, 53115 Bonn, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6332-5783","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tomislav","family":"Medic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Geodesy and Geoinformation, University of Bonn, 53115 Bonn, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"107","DOI":"10.1016\/S0012-8252(01)00057-5","article-title":"Solifluction rates, processes and landforms: A global review","volume":"55","author":"Matsuoka","year":"2001","journal-title":"Earth-Sci.
