Geohazard Slope Stability Assessment

Objective

The City of Moose Jaw engaged Vertex to perform slope stability analysis along the banks of the Moose Jaw River and perform a risk assessment and identify high-risk zones.

Approach

Using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles – commonly called drones – Vertex was able to capture high-resolution imagery of the river banks. These images were compiled into a 3D model that allowed for precise feature identification – particularly areas of erosion and landslide signatures.

Results

Using the imagery, 3D models, and experienced reviewers, Vertex was able to perform a geohazard and stability assessment of the river banks, identify areas of highest risk, and generate a mitigation and monitoring plan for the City of Moose Jaw.
