D.05.02: local scale investigation and advanced modelling of the geohazards affecting the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage case study site
Version: 1.0
Issue date: 12 September 2018
This Open Access report presents the results of local-scale assessment, monitoring and modelling of geohazards affecting the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site. The analysis conducted used in-situ observations, landslide data, remotely sensed data and flooding simulations. The results show that two landslides, in Starkholmes and Ambergate, and flooding, mainly over the west river bank, are the main geohazards affecting the site with the possibility to experience increased geohazards in the coming decades due to changes in climate.
D.05.01: high tech monitoring techniques
Version: 1.4
Issue date: 31 March 2018
This Open Access report presents the results of PROTHEGo's WP5 Task 5.1, researched and written by CUT in collaboration with UNIMIB as work package leads. It examines and proposes local scale Hi Tech monitoring techniques in order to show the main low impact monitoring techniques currently used in the field of heritage conservation from geohazard.
D.02.02: digital factsheets with ground stability information for each World Heritage Listed (WHL) site
Version 1
Issue date: 8 June 2018
This Open Access report describes the digital factsheets produced by PROTHEGO and how they are accessed through the PROTHEGO map viewer. This map viewer is a useful resource for users to obtain a general overview about some of the different geohazards affecting World Heritage Listed sites in Europe and the satellite information available for them (up to the end of 2016).
D.02.01: available satellite InSAR data for the European WHL sites
Version: 1.0
Issue date: 27 April 2017
This Open Access report presents the results of PROTHEGO's WP2 Task 1, developed and implemented by NERC as WP leader, to provide a general overview of the coverage of existing satellite InSAR datasets for the UNESCO sites of Europe, and to identify data coverage gaps.
D.07.01: dissemination and communication strategy
Version: 1.0
Issue date: 13 January 2016
This Open Access report outlines the strategy that, in collaboration with ISPRA, CUT, UNIMIB and IGME, NERC designed to disseminate PROTHEGO's objectives, methodologies and achievements and to engage stakeholders and heritage practitioners to maximise the impact of the project.
D.01.01: UNESCO cultural heritage vs natural hazards at European scale
Version: 1.0
Issue date: 15 December 2016
This Open Access report presents the results of PROTHEGO's WP1, implemented ad developed mainly by ISPRA as WP leader, and focussed on the analysis of the state-of-the-art on geohazards in the UNESCO WHL sites of Europe.
