LiDAR Data for Characterizing Linear and Planar Geomorphic Markers in Tectonic Geomorphology (open access)

LiDAR Data for Characterizing Linear and Planar Geomorphic Markers in Tectonic Geomorphology

This paper provides a brief review of airborne light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data for characterizing linear and planar geomorphic markers in tectonic geomorphology, including traces of active faults and surface deformation caused by earthquakes. Challenges and opportunities of LiDAR for the study of tectonic geomorphology and coseismic deformation are also discussed.
