Landslide Detection and Propagation using Wireless Sensor Network

Abstract

The origin of wireless sensor network technology has provided the faculty of developing large
scale systems for real-time monitoring. This paper describes the civilization of a wireless sensor network
system for landslide detection in India, where a region known for its heavy rainfall, steep slopes, and
frequent landslides.The system focuses on monitoring landslide and moisture detection and generate
warning using sensors,alarms and controllers. This will generates warning when level of earth vibrations
crosses a threshold and then alarm will raise. Also camera is used to capture the images and send an email
with captured images to authorised person. Temperature sensors used to detecting a temp if temp exceeds
then also email will be send. Vibration sensor detect an vibration of landslide. The sensor outputs are
given to the control unit. Raspberry pi micro controller is used to controlling the whole system. If the any
sensor detect and exceeds the value of sensor then camera capture the image and send a mail .
