About
B. Nagarajan is a leading geoscientist specializing in landslide hazard assessment and geodetic monitoring. His research integrates advanced remote sensing technologies—including LiDAR, SAR interferometry (InSAR), and Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS)—to characterize slope instability in the Indian Himalayas. In his landmark 2018 study, Nagarajan pioneered the first robust geodetic framework in India combining Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS), Robotic Total Station (RTS), and Multi-temporal InSAR to investigate the Sirobagarh landslide in Uttarakhand. This multi-sensor approach, cited 29 times, enabled unprecedented spatial and temporal resolution of landslide kinematics, establishing a benchmark for integrated monitoring in challenging terrain. His work bridges engineering geology and geodesy, providing critical insights for early warning systems and risk mitigation in landslide-prone regions. Nagarajan’s contributions have significantly advanced the application of cutting-edge geodetic tools in Indian landslide research, influencing both academic studies and practical hazard management strategies.
