Implementación de un prototipo de sistema de alerta para detección en tiempo real de deslizamientos de tierra.

Abstract

The main objective of this project was to be able to present a possible solution to the damage caused by landslides, identifying the various factors that cause them. Once these factors have been identified, an investigation of the areas within the Metropolitan District of Quito that are more prone to landslides is carried out, in order to select the elements that are part of the alert system. The elements must have the ability to communicate wirelessly, which in turn opens up the monitoring of the area where the system is located; The data obtained through monitoring will be stored in a database, the same that allows the personnel in charge to maintain a scheme of the incidence of landslides in the area, in order to alert the surrounding population to the mishap, the system will to have an audible alert, the same as when the system detects the landslide, the population can act on the alert, seeking to reduce most of the damage caused. The monitoring is achieved through the collection of data obtained by a weight sensor, the same one that is strategically located in the analyzed area, the sensor connects wirelessly with a server where the database is previously executed. mentioned, in this way a constant observation of the area and the operation of the system is maintained.
