Rockfall analysis plugin based on the Cone Method
About
QPROTO is a QGIS Processing plugin for small-scale rockfall analyses based on the simplified Cone Method (Jaboyedoff and Labiouse, 2011). It supports preliminary assessment of exposed areas, block velocity, block energy and time-independent relative hazard. QPROTO was designed by Politecnico di Torino (Marta Castelli, Monica Barbero and Marco Grisolia) and Arpa Piemonte (Rocco Pispico and Luca Lanteri), and developed by Faunalia. The 2026 update was carried out by Stefano Campus. The plugin was partially funded by the Italian 2015 PRIN project "Innovative monitoring and design strategies for sustainable landslide risk mitigation".
