Wireless Sensor Network System for Landslide Monitoring and Warning
IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement, 2019
This paper presents a wireless sensor network system (WSNS) for effective, reliable, and efficient monitoring of landslides. The system incorporates a network of wireless inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensor devices for collecting movement data, a local base station for data gathering, a capture server for data processing and storage, and a warning system. The major contributions of this paper are: 1) two approaches for defining movement thresholds; 2) landslide classification concept based on IMU sensor data patterns and magnitudes; and 3) a conceptual framework for building an intelligent and reliable wireless monitoring and warning system. The IMU sensor data collected by three-axis accelerometer and three-axis gyroscope were utilized to define the movement thresholds and classify landslides based on specially designed laboratory experiments. The performances of the IMU sensors and the base station for data collection and communication were tested through a rock-fall experiment conducted in the field conditions. The WSN-IMU system is capable of monitoring all types of slope movements independent of the triggering factors. The unique ability of the WSN-IMU system to determine landslide types allows designers and authorized personnel to predict subsequent movement pattern and duration so as to implement appropriate risk management and control measures to alleviate the socioeconomic losses. This paper outcome serves as the foundation for future studies and technological advancements that will facilitate landslide stabilization or mitigation actions as well as to predict the intensity of damages associated with those landslides.
Development of Wireless Sensor Network for slope monitoring
2012 4th International Conference on Intelligent and Advanced Systems (ICIAS2012), 2012
An increase in the number of landslides in Malaysia, especially during monsoon season, has caused extensive damage to property and lives. The latest tragedy on 21' 1 May 2011, which claimed 16lives of innocent orphans, has become an indicator that a capable real-time monitoring system is crucial in order to avoid this terrible incident from happening again. This report highlights the deployment of Wireless Sensor Network interfaced with suitable sensors for slope monitoring. The sensors include rain gauge, accelerometer, inclinometer, force sensor and pressure sensor. The system is designed to collect the data from the sensors, transmit it to the base station, present the data with graphical representation and interprets the data so that suitable decision can be made. This decision will determine the level of warning that will be declared. Along with the prototype, a slope model will be built to demonstrate the event of landslide. This project is expected to be able to perform a real-time monitoring on the slope and collects relevant data so that appropriate warning can be raised if necessary.
EFFECTIVE APPROACH FOR LANDSLIDE MONITORING USING WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS
The phenomenon that occurs in the precipitous hills and affects animate and inanimate settlements with the down slope faction of soil and rock along with unrefined materials is landslide. It is intractable type of geological phenomenon which results under the force of gravity with exgregious attack. Real time prediction and monitoring of landslides is essential for one and all living and including flora and fauna. The ascendant problems that evoke destruction of pulchritudinous hills make life fretful. Some of the preconception and exorbitant ideas are being inscribed in this paper that describes different methodologies of detection and prediction of landslide. Wireless sensor network plays most significant role here. Wireless sensor networks are littered with dense data, inexpensive long range communication to multiple locations, overall increased accuracy and robustness because of the dense deployment of sensors, and real time monitoring and prediction that makes it suitable for the use. Real time monitoring of landslides is considered to be teleological and overarching process ensued by the great loss of life and property.
An Autonomous Landslide Monitoring System Based on Wireless Sensor Networks
Computing in Civil Engineering (2012), 2012
Landslides cause significant damages to civil infrastructure. Over the years, methods and technologies have been proposed to determine the risk of landslides and to detect hazardous slope movements. There have been increasing interests in developing and landslide monitoring systems to observe movements using sensors installed on the slope. Although providing accurate data, many landslide monitoring systems are not operating in an automated fashion and lack the ability to analyze the collected data in a timely manner. This paper presents an autonomous landslide monitoring system based on wireless sensor networks. Self-contained, autonomous software programs ("software agents") are embedded into the wireless sensor nodes. In cooperation with each other, the software agents are continuously collecting and analyzing sensor data, such as recorded ground acceleration and the orientations of the sensor nodes along the slope. If movements are observed, the collected data sets are automatically transmitted to a connected server system for further diagnoses. The landslide monitoring system presented in this paper is remotely accessible via Internet and provides real-time information about the current state of the monitored slope. Laboratory tests have been conducted to validate the reliability and the performance of the monitoring system.
Wireless Sensor Network for Detecting Vibrations Before Landslides
2014
Wireless sensor network technology has provided the capability of developing large scale systems for real-time monitoring. The recent years, people were unknown for all kind of natural disaster and calamities. Natural calamities like Earth movers (earthquake), Heavy rainfall, Flood, Tsunami, Hurricane, Cyclone etc. People, who were suffered through, had myth of GOD's anger. There were different methods found to understand the danger from natural calamities. In ancient time, methods were less accurate which leads to heavy damage to mankind. As the time pass by new methods have been developed with more accuracy which gives correct intimation about the dangers. The advanced systems developed are more durable and reliable to understand the danger of destructions. In this paper, we have proposed theory to monitor landslides which occurs all of sudden and destroys village and mankind. In this theory, we have used accelerometer sensors to detect the small vibrations right before the avalanche occurs. The sensor module detects the vibrations from the field and sends the data to monitoring station through GSM module. Hence the data is observed on monitoring system and the alarm goes on hit whenever data crosses the threshold. These modules are more durable and accurate to understand unknown danger to mankind and it also helps from heavy damage and destructions.
