Description:AUTOMATED HANGING CABLE RESCUE WITH REAL-TIME GPS MONITORING AND ALERTS FOR LANDSLIDE AREAS

Technical Field
[0001] The embodiments herein generally relate to a method for automated hanging cable rescue with real-time GPS monitoring and alerts for landslide areas.
Description of the Related Art
[0002] The characteristics of highway slope are actually spot distribution along the road, long interval, small scale, large quantity, and lack of statistics, which makes pre-warning challenging and monitoring expensive. Currently, the most popular monitoring technique is still manual operation, which is unable to collect data in unfavorable weather conditions. Even though remote monitoring is possible with a global positioning system (GPS), the machine is large and has a 3-5 mm precision. The primary causes of landslides are either natural or man-made construction events, which are frequently linked to serious social and economic repercussions. Numerous studies on landslide hazard mitigation and forecasting have been carried out. A great deal of work has been done in these areas because landslide studies have recently made identifying and evaluating the risks of landslide hazards a key focus. The photos especially high-resolution satellite photos can serve as a foundation upon which other data can be superimposed or combined. They are integrated in many applications, even though GIS is used for data management and analysis and GPS and RS are primarily used for data acquisition.
[0003] The pre-warning techniques based on rainfall and displacement monitoring are developed. In order to provide security for highway construction and transportation while minimizing environmental disruption, the real-time remote monitoring and pre-warning system. Its benefits include low costs, energy savings, high automation, and efficiency. The purpose of a strong surveillance and warning system is to collect valuable data, which is crucial for mitigating or reducing the effects of landslides. Recent years have seen a huge increase in interest in landslide detection, and early warning systems in particular. In order to lessen the impact of a landslide, it tracks slop movements in areas that could experience one and keeps an eye on changes in landslide data points. GIS and RS images are used to organize damage information, post-disaster census data, and reconstruction site evaluation during the recovery phase; during the preparedness phase, GIS, RS, GPS, and other pertinent sensors are integrated in the design of disaster warning systems; during the response phase, GPS, along with other sensors, and GIS are required for search and rescue operations; and during the mitigation phase, GIS is used to manage large volumes of data required for hazard and risk assessment, evacuation route planning, and emergency operations center design.
[0004] The global system of mobile communication (GSM) system, general packet radio service (GPRS) is a type of wireless packet switching transmission service. Wide area wireless internet protocol (IP) connections can be established point-to-point. GPRS can be used to provide a strong and practical data transmission scheme anywhere there is a GSM network. To realize this vision, it will be necessary to assess the potential evolution of current wireless-based and landslide monitoring techniques. Broadband, satellite, wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi), general packet radio service (GPRS), global system for mobile communication (GSM), and other currently available wireless technologies will all include new components to meet present and future demands.

SUMMARY
[0001] In view of the foregoing, an embodiment herein provides a method for automated hanging cable rescue with real-time GPS monitoring and alerts for landslide areas. In some embodiments, wherein the secondary development platform that facilitates actual 3D data processing is MAPGIS. This 3D information management system for mountain highway geological disasters was created using MAPGIS and the SQL-Server structured query language database management system. 3D slope geology modeling and visualization, data collection and illustration, stability computation, displacement forecasting, and real-time pre-warning are among the system's features. Not every situation calls for the use of a satellite imaginary technique or a robotic total station. Because of its high cost, it might not be feasible to implement for small infrastructure, such as in hilly areas. Smart sensors, low-power modules, and long-range communication are all integrated into IoT Internet of Things architecture to improve outcomes while lowering implementation costs. GPS has several benefits when it comes to monitoring deformations, such as being able to provide 3D information, operating around the clock and in all weather conditions, eliminating the need for stations to be able to see each other, and being highly automatic once installation is finished. A receiver's high current sampling rate up to 20 Hz, for example may be sufficient for a variety of monitoring projects. However, clear sky visibility is necessary for GPS surveys.
[0002] In some embodiments, wherein a pulse signal will be generated and transmitted to the transmitter when the wire is pulled more than 1 mm. With the short-range wireless communication feature (500-1000 m), a group of several meters can be formed without the need for a cable. Typically, multiple displacement meters are required for a single landslide in order to track the displacement in various locations. Short-distance wireless communication is established between the transmitter and receiver for networking convenience. With the help of the common RS-232 communication interface, the receiver can simultaneously receive wireless signals from eight transmitters and transmit them to the collector. Cloud-based architecture in IoT technology should guarantee reliable internet connectivity throughout the entire service access period. Furthermore, unless artificial intelligence is used, trained personnel are needed to extract valuable information from big data, and bandwidth requirements rise in tandem with geo-data. Multipath effects, cycle slips, troposphere delay, and antenna phase center offsets/variation are the primary causes of errors in GPS surveys. The current research efforts focus on psuedolite-augmented GPS positioning, integer ambiguity resolution, and multipath effect mitigation.
[0003] In some embodiments, wherein the data collector gathers data from different sensors, transforms data to the same format and sends to the GPRS module. After turning on and determining the public net IP of the surveillance and control center, wireless communication can be established using the pre-applied domain name that is entered into the GPRS module to connect to the DNS server. The benefit of using remote sensing without physical contact is that it can be used to monitor wide areas. Numerous systems have been developed in this area, such as laser scanning and satellite radar interferometry. However, its drawbacks include discontinuity in data acquisition, precise ground resolution, and increased cost. Real-time field data collection is the primary function of sensor networks, which comprise sensor nodes and sink nodes. GIS can be used for risk assessment, hazard mapping, warning, and forecasting for natural disasters such as floods, forest fires, landslides, earthquakes, and tropical cyclones. It also has the analytical ability to make decisions and integrate data in every stage of a disaster. GIS has served as the foundation for a number of disaster management systems.
[0004] These and other aspects of the embodiments herein will be better appreciated and understood when considered in conjunction with the following description and the accompanying drawings. It should be understood, however, that the following descriptions, while indicating preferred embodiments and numerous specific details thereof, are given by way of illustration and not of limitation. Many changes and modifications may be made within the scope of the embodiments herein without departing from the spirit thereof, and the embodiments herein include all such modifications.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0001] The embodiments herein will be better understood from the following detailed description with reference to the drawings, in which:
[0002] FIG. 1 illustrates a method for automated hanging cable rescue with real-time GPS monitoring and alerts for landslide areas according to an embodiment herein; and
[0003] FIG. 2 illustrates a method of system structure according to an embodiment herein.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0001] The embodiments herein and the various features and advantageous details thereof are explained more fully with reference to the non-limiting embodiments that are illustrated in the accompanying drawings and detailed in the following description. Descriptions of well-known components and processing techniques are omitted so as to not unnecessarily obscure the embodiments herein. The examples used herein are intended merely to facilitate an understanding of ways in which the embodiments herein may be practiced and to further enable those of skill in the art to practice the embodiments herein. Accordingly, the examples should not be construed as limiting the scope of the embodiments herein.
[0002] FIG. 1 illustrates a method for automated hanging cable rescue with real-time GPS monitoring and alerts for landslide areas according to an embodiment herein. In some embodiments, for short-term forecasting, use the Verhulst inverse function model; for medium- and long-term forecasting, use the neural network and least square fitting models. The primary applications of optical very high resolution (VHR) data are visual inspection and analytical techniques for landslide monitoring. Lithology or various terrains, such as water content, wreathing, and vegetation cover, can be distinguished by VHR images. The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, or NDVI, can be used to map the vegetation cover rate through optical images. In contrast, central Italy uses a combination of numerical modeling and ground-based interferometric synthetic aperture radar (GBInSAR) as a monitoring technique to identify rock fall. The GIS research group at LSGI is strong. Both theoretical and technological aspects are covered in our research areas. GIS Voronoi diagrams, marine GIS, multi-scale GIS models and generalization, spatial relationships in GIS, uncertainty and spatial data quality in GIS, and 3D and dynamic GIS data model and structure are all included in the theoretical research.
[0003] In some embodiments, the first step is to design the various combinations of mechanical parameters, such as E/C/φ deformation modulus/internal friction angle/cohesion of slope, in a reasonable range. Next, using the finite element analysis software, PLAXIS, strength reduction and plastic analysis are performed for the monitoring slope. Finally, based on the results of the calculations, the relationship between the slope safety factor and surface displacement is established, after which the corresponding displacement pre-warning values can be proposed. Digital photogrammetry can be used for metrological applications, short-range precision monitoring of deformation, and long-range landslide characterization. An in-phase electromagnetic beam is emitted by Terrestrial Laser Scanning, which can quickly produce a three-dimensional image of an object and measure coordinates with an accuracy of centimeters to millimeters. It is necessary to continuously monitor surface displacement and geomorphological locations in order to analyze landslide hazards. The wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation that a system can detect are referred to as its spectral resolution. Many RS systems, also known as multispectral sensors, record energy across multiple distinct wavelength ranges at different spectral resolutions. In the visible, NIF, and mid-infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, hundreds of extremely narrow bands are detected by sophisticated hyper-spectral sensors. Their exceptional spectral resolution makes it easier to distinguish between various targets.
[0004] In some embodiments, the authors' pre-warning and real-time remote monitoring system for the geological disaster of highway slopes in mountainous areas has the following benefits: low costs, high automation, low energy consumption, and high efficiency. 3D slope geology modeling and visualization, data collection and illustration, stability computation, displacement forecasting, and real-time pre-warning are among the system's capabilities. The engineering applications demonstrate the system's effectiveness and its ability to secure highway transportation while minimizing environmental disturbance. Deep earth probes, or DEPs, were tested in pilot deployment before being used in the main deployment. Ten sensors in total, including six wireless sensors, are used in the pilot deployment; in the main deployment, this number is increased to twenty DEPs and twenty wireless sensor nodes. These DEPs have been placed in six different locations, starting with two in the hill's toe region, one in the middle, one close to the hill's crown, and the final one in the stable zone, which is primarily the upper portion. The WSN is made up of a satellite network, broadband, wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi), a general packet radio service, and a worldwide mobile communication system. Classifying land use and cover, mapping topography, vegetation, soil, etc., detecting changes, and studying the environment, including air, water, and heat island quality, have all made extensive use of RS techniques. Monitoring landslides and ground movements using InSAR is a significant application area. An RS group at LSGI is focused on InSAR, urban heat islands, and air quality monitoring.
[0001] FIG. 2 illustrates a method of system structure according to an embodiment herein. In some embodiments, the lack of computation parameters, such as the permeability coefficient, soil-water characteristic curve, and highway slope in a mountainous area, will make stability analysis calculations challenging. Since they could be damaged by lightning, the sensors that are installed in slop are not electrical in nature. Rather, a robotic arm equipped with a laser beam is employed in the suggested system. It is managed by internal software that includes a satellite communication system and a data collection system. Ten hertz is the data sampling rate. Fiber optic cables are used to connect the receivers on each bridge to a local data acquisition station, which is connected to the GPS general data acquisition center. The entire processing time from data collection to result display is two minutes. The single epoch solution has an accuracy of about 1 cm horizontally and 2 cm vertically.
[0002] In some embodiments, plotting the displacement process curve and rainfall histogram of one or more days, as well as querying the monitoring data by date, type, and value, are all possible by clicking on the corresponding monitoring point in a 3D scene. To examine the stability of the corresponding slope, the user can also select the section locating point in the 3D scene and call FEM analysis software like "Geo-Slope" and "PLAXIS." In order to overcome the limitations of the statistical rainfall threshold, measurements from MEMS tilt sensors have been integrated with the SIGMA (Sistema Integrato Gestione Monitoraggion Allerta) model using a decisional algorithm at a test site in the Darjeeling Himalayas, India. When the tilt meter measurements were incorporated into the SIGMA model, the reliability index improved from 18.10 to 20:23 and the number of false alerts issued dropped from 70 to 38. Several automatic and real-time disaster forecasting systems for flood monitoring have been developed using GIS technology. The system forecasts river levels, estimates the area that might flood, and receives rainfall and hydrologic data. Measures to lessen flood damage will be implemented using the system outputs. Typical examples include the Flood Mitigation Assistance Program (FMA), the Gezhouba Hydropower Station management information system (GHSMIS), the Early Warning System, MIKE 11, NEXRAD, the Storm Water Management Model (SWMM), and Digital Flood Insurance Rate Maps (DFIRMs).
[0003] In some embodiments, the monitoring point will twinkle in four different colors-blue, orange, yellow, and red-corresponding to the four pre-warning levels when the data reaches the predetermined critical value. Simultaneously, the target mobile phone will automatically receive a brief pre-warning message. The ADXL202 biaxial accelerometer is used to detect ground movement, and it transmits data to the gateway via Bluetooth. Because of Bluetooth, it can only communicate within a 30 m range while using 40 mA of current. Since more and more Bluetooth modules are needed to cover a wide area, this method will be expensive due to the communication link. The silty-sand testbed in this scope has a cohesion of 0.11 kg/cm2 and an internal friction angle of 39.7 degrees. Five sensor nodes are used to set the rainfall intensity at 30 mm/hr. Another common risk brought on by changes in perception and temperature is rockfall. Rocky slopes are becoming unstable, and civil engineers are using various simulation tools to try to get the best outcome. The current GPS technology's lack of monitoring accuracy and dependability is a major drawback, particularly in unfavorable conditions like low sky visibility and multipath-sensitive locations. The typical positioning accuracy from single epoch GPS observations is at the cm level, which is frequently below the required level for short GPS baselines, as is the case in the majority of structural monitoring cases. Therefore, it is an important task to further reduce the errors in GPS measurements.
