- We developed an improved close-range photogrammetric technique.
- We assess soil erosion under rainfall conditions.
- The system can monitor soil erosion on fine temporal and spatial scales.
- Soil surface DEM can be monitored with a spatial resolution of less than 1.5Â mm.
- This method can accurately resolve the evolution of soil erosion.
Soil erosion is a continuous process of detachment, transportation, and deposition of soil particles. Obtaining accurate descriptions of soil surface topography is crucial for quantifying changes to the soil surface during erosion processes. The objective of this study was to develop an improved close-range photogrammetric technique to assess soil erosion under rainfall conditions. Based on high overlapping image acquisition, digital point cloud matching, digital elevation model (DEM) generation and soil erosion calculation, a digital close-range photogrammetric observation system was explored and established. The results showed that the established digital photogrammetric observation system could accurately calculate the digital point cloud from the underlying surface with a 2Â min time interval and a 1.5Â mm spatial resolution. In addition, based on the DEM generated from digital point clouds, the amount of soil erosion in different topographic positions within various time periods was calculated. The digital photogrammetric observation methods explored in our study provide a reliable way to monitor soil erosion processes, especially under rainfall conditions. This approach can accurately resolve the evolution of the underlying surface soil erosion, which is of great importance in understanding soil erosion mechanisms.
