Imagery techniques allow to follow the global evolution of large scale landslides and cliffs, contrary to traditional techniques. Using such techniques to study the kinematics of three instables zones, we show (1) that correlating aerial images is a fat way to get global and multi-temporal data ; (2) that terrestrial laser-scanner allows to acquire in small areas undergoing higher movement rates, often not accessible to conventionnal survey ; (3) that there is no satisfying method using high resolution satellite images in such and low-cost way to follow the evolution of a landslide. Regarding the sites this study focusses on, we show the mountainside motion of the Sedrun landslide (Switzerland) has been regularly slowing down since 2002, fo...
