Monitoring Movements and Deformations

Displacement is the spatial change in the position of a specific point on an object or the ground. Such a change may or may not lead to deformations, meaning changes in the shape of a body, such as distortion or cracking, which typically occur due to uneven displacements.

Displacements and deformations occur under the influence of various external and internal factors, including:

Geodetic displacement measurements involve determining changes in the shape of an object or ground caused by external and internal forces.
