About
Greet Deruyter is a leading researcher in geomatics and spatial data analysis, with a primary focus on the application of laser scanning technologies for structural monitoring and deformation measurement. Her work bridges the gap between advanced surveying techniques and civil engineering, particularly through high-resolution terrestrial laser scanning (TLS). Her most-cited paper, "Application of laser scanning for deformation measurements: a comparison between different types of scanning instruments" (2012, 15 citations), provides a critical evaluation of various scanning instruments for measuring geometric deformations in newly built concrete structures. This research, conducted at Ghent University’s Department of Geography, has laid foundational insights for non-invasive, precise monitoring of infrastructure integrity. Deruyter’s contributions are pivotal in advancing spatial data acquisition methods, enabling more accurate and efficient detection of structural changes over time. Her work has been instrumental in promoting the adoption of TLS in civil engineering practice, with ongoing impact on safety assessments and maintenance strategies for modern constructions. Through her rigorous comparative studies, Deruyter continues to shape best practices in deformation monitoring, making her a key figure in applied geomatics research.
