The results show that this method based on high-accuracy point cloud contactless measurement can accurately calculate slope deformation with an absolute error being controlled within 1 cm, and its time consumption is about 27 minutes shorter than currently used real time kinematic (RTK), thus improving monitoring efficiency. %U http://www.cssjj.com.cn/EN/10.16265/j.cnki.issn1003-3033.2020.05.024
