Abstract

A computer vision system based on digital panoramic images is used to overcome current
problems in geotechnical data acquisition. High resolution images enable spatial measurement
of geometric entities of a rock mass, like discontinuity lengths, the size of a region,
discontinuity orientations, and roughness parameters. Besides, the images represent an objective documentation of the visual rock mass conditions. A system based a digital panoramic camera was tested on tunnel construction sites and quarries in Austria
