This study presents the synergy of multidisciplinary surveys for the monitoring of an active landslide in Western Greece. The aim of this paper is to highlight and validate a methodology based on multiple sensors data integration which can successfully be used to manage natural disasters or to improve the knowledge of a specific phenomenon in order to prevent and mitigate the risk. Photogrammetric and interferometric processing has been applied to a complex set of remote sensing data such as high resolution satellite images, digital airphotos, aerial photos acquired from an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle and radar data. Global Navigation Satellite System measurements and continuous inclinometer measurements are being performed. The multifunctional technology of Geographic Information Systems is used in order to collect, storage, manage, process, analyze and cartographically represent the previously described complex geoscientific information.
