Abstract

Detecting landslides in regions prone to geohazards is paramount for ensuring community safety and safeguarding critical infrastructure. This study presents an innovative and comprehensive approach to landslide detection by harnessing the capabilities of Long-Range (LoRa) communication technology for remote monitoring. Landslides pose significant risks to human lives, property, and the environment, particularly in areas characterized by steep slopes, weak geological formations, and heavy rainfall. Early detection and warning systems are essential for mitigating these risks and enabling timely evacuation and response efforts. Traditional landslide monitoring methods often rely on expensive instrumentation and wired communication systems, limiting their deployment in remote or inaccessible terrain. By contrast, our proposed method leverages LoRa tech- nology, which offers several distinct advantages for geohazard monitoringFinding landslides in areas prone to land movement is crucial for keeping people safe and protecting important structures. This research introduces a new and thorough way to detect landslides by using Long-Range (LoRa) technology for remote monitoring. Landslides are very risky for people, buildings, and nature, especially in places with steep slopes and lots of rain. Detecting them early and warning people is necessary to reduce these risks and help people leave quickly. The usual methods to monitor landslides are costly and need wired systems, which makes it hard to use them in remote or hard-to-reach places. In contrast, our method uses LoRa tech which has many advantages for monitoring land movements. LoRa can send signals over long distances with little power, so it's great for areas with few services. This means we can place LoRa sensors in specific spots in risky areas without needing a lot of wires or services. We use LoRa sensors in landslide-prone areas to watch over important things like how wet the ground is, how steep it is, and the temperature. The sensors work on their own, gathering data regularly and sending it wirelessly to a main base. The main base is the center of the monitoring system, where smart programs check the data straight away to find signs of possible landslides. This quick study is important for giving early warnings and taking steps to lessen the impact of landslides. A big plus of our way is that it can fit different areas and conditions. The LoRa tech can send data over big spaces, so it's good for places with no services. And the low-power of LoRa tools makes them last a long time without a charged source, which boosts the system's freedom and trustworthiness even in off-grid spots.
