Dear Colleagues,
The call-for-abstracts of EGU General Assembly 2026 is open!
EGU26 will be held in Vienna, Austria, and online on 3–8 May 2026.
Don’t miss the chance to submit an abstract to our session, “IoT-based monitoring and machine learning approaches for landslide studies”.
This session focuses on contributions dealing with design, implementation, and application of IoT monitoring systems and machine learning methods for landslide studies. Test cases describing operational applications are particularly welcome, as well as studies dealing with promising recent innovations, even if still at an experimental stage.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
● design and deployment of IoT-based monitoring networks
● processing of geotechnical, hydrological, and meteorological data in IoT/ML frameworks
● methods for the analysis of complex datasets
● ML applications for landslide detection and forecasting
● real-time monitoring and analysis
The abstract submission deadline is 15 January 2026, 13:00 CET.
On-site participants who wish to apply for Roland Schlich travel support must be the contact author and the first and presenting author of their contribution. They must submit an abstract by 1 December 2025, 13:00 CET.
