Over the past decade, natural and human-induced disasters have claimed millions of lives. Intelligent robots equipped with advanced sensors and integrating wireless networks are attracting attention from researchers and rescuers all around the world. This paper is an application of the Wireless Sensor Network to disaster management. The wireless sensor network consists of two fixed nodes and moving...
Recent years have shown an alarmous increase in rain fall induced landslides. This has facilitated the need for having a monitoring system to predict the landslides which could eventually reduce the loss of human life. We have developed and deployed a Wireless Sensor Network to monitor rainfall induced landslide, in Munnar, South India. A successful landslide warning was issued in June 2009 using...
Nowadays, almost all the countries are facing threats from terrorists and intruders from their border areas, challenging the internal security of the country in those areas. So many civilian and military applications require locating an intruder in a secured area. Target tracking, data processing and analysis play a major role in this type of applications. The proposed system is to develop a centralized...
Rain fall induced landslides are a common cause of damages to life and property in the Western Ghats region in south India. Work have been in progress to develop a monitoring system to predict the landslides to reduce the loss of human life. We have developed and deployed a Wireless Sensor Network to monitor rainfall induced landslide, in Munnar, South India. A successful landslide warning was issued...
