Early Detection of Landslides

Abstract

Landslides are the cause of damage to buildings, property, and human life. Landslides are the major threat to human life every year many people lost their lives due to landslides. Early detection of landslides is essential to reduce the impact of landslide to human life and property. We can save many lives if it will be feasible to identify landslides before they happen. This document offers a summary of landslip early detection method. The project report presents that land slopes of different angles are made using soil and sensors like soil and moisture sensor, ultra-sonic sensor, vibration sensors and accelerometer & gyroscope sensors are used to capture or know the behavior of the soil before or after the landslide took place. In this study, we utilized software to construct land slopes of various angles with the same dimensions as of physical slopes. We checked the factor of safety for the slopes and applied the pore-water pressure on the slopes to determine the landslide zone area and generate contour maps of pore-water pressure.
