SPATIO TEMPORAL DATA CUBE APPLIED TO AIS CONTAINERSHIPS TREND ANALYSIS IN THE EARLY YEARS OF THE BELT AND ROAD INITIATIVE – FROM GLOBAL TO LOCAL SCALE

The study presents a set of multitemporal geospatial surveys and the continuous monitoring of water flows in a large proglacial area (4 km²) of the North-Western Alps. Activities are developed with a multidisciplinary approach and merge geomatics, hydraulic and geophysical methods. The goal is to allow researchers to characterize, monitor and model a number of physical processes and interconnected phenomena, with a broader perspective and deeper understanding than a single-discipline approach.
