IoT based Landslide Detection and Monitoring System

Abstract

Abstract: According to recent survey 64.15% of fatalities are due to natural calamities which includes landslide as the major problem. Studies show that due time consuming and unreliable prediction system there is increase in rate of fatalities due to landslide. Only way to reduce these severe effects is predicting landslide efficiently and accurately without consuming much time. Most of the papers surveyed use sensor technology, and the most commonly used one is WSN (Wireless Sensor Network) since this sensor network provides large scale monitoring. If the chance of occurrence of landslide is high after the prediction an alert is sent to the disaster management department. Each of these methods have different percentage of accuracy. This survey paper discusses various approaches for detecting and predicting landslide thereby reducing fatalities. Keywords: Gyro sensor, Soil sensor, NodeMCU, Aurdino IDE, Blynk.
