EFFECTIVE APPROACH FOR LANDSLIDE MONITORING USING WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS

The phenomenon that occurs in the precipitous hills and affects animate and inanimate settlements with the down slope faction of soil and rock along with unrefined materials is landslide. It is intractable type of geological phenomenon which results under the force of gravity with exgregious attack. Real time prediction and monitoring of landslides is essential for one and all living and including flora and fauna. The ascendant problems that evoke destruction of pulchritudinous hills make life fretful. Some of the preconception and exorbitant ideas are being inscribed in this paper that describes different methodologies of detection and prediction of landslide. Wireless sensor network plays most significant role here. Wireless sensor networks are littered with dense data, inexpensive long range communication to multiple locations, overall increased accuracy and robustness because of the dense deployment of sensors, and real time monitoring and prediction that makes it suitable for the use. Real time monitoring of landslides is considered to be teleological and overarching process ensued by the great loss of life and property.
