For this purpose, a piece of research based on the slope mass rating classification system using closerange terrestrial digital photogrammetry (CR-TDP) has led to improvements in quality and timing of discontinuity data acquisition, and analyzes the suitability of each one of the parameters when applied to weak foliated rocks. TDP allows rapid 3D image acquisition of a rock slope, which can be analyzed using software to determine the geometrical parameters that affect stability. A fast procedure to perform the photogrammetric, non-contact survey in order to obtain the 3D images is shown in this paper. Being a rapid and single-person task, this procedure provides enough precision to be applied to weak foliated rock slopes with non-well-defined geometry. Furthermore, the study has focused on highly foliated rock outcrops, in which high resolution in the 3D images is very desirable. This research was applied to mountain road cuts, in which the use of TDP with a very close range was necessary. Through an application on weak rocks in the Alpujarras (Andalusia, Spain), this work analyzes the bias when applying TDP to materials such as these, under progressive weathering processes.}, organization = {Junta de Andalucía (RNM121)}, organization = {Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia del Gobierno de España}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, keywords = {Terrestrial digital photogrammetry}, keywords = {Slope Mass Rating}, keywords = {Schistosity}, keywords = {Weak rocks}, keywords = {Sampling bias}, keywords = {SMR}, title = {Weak foliated rock slope stability analysis with ultra-close-range terrestrial digital photogrammetry}, doi = {10.1007/s10064-017-1119-z}, author = {Alameda-Hernández, Pedro and El Hamdouni, Rachid and Irigaray, Clemente and Chacón, José}, }
