MAKING NATURAL HAZARDS VISIBLE

Natural disasters usually have devastating effects and often occur unexpectedly and surprisingly. Therefore, it is important to listen carefully when nature "speaks" to us. By closely monitoring various parameters, changes in natural conditions can be detected at an early stage. This valuable time gain allows for prediction and identification of such events and provides the opportunity to evacuate people and prevent damage.



Our customer and partner, Ecosensors, is currently engaged in a project called "Forest Fire Risk Assessment in Salzburg" due to heat, drought, and wind. Decentlab's DL-TRS12DL-ATM41, DL-SMTP sensors for LoRaWAN are used in this project. In addition, the system collects and analyzes the following data categories with different Decentlab sensors:



Climate & Weather

Extreme weather events such as storms, precipitation, humidity, and heat / Forest and wildfire risk



Environment

Water level / Soil conditions / Air quality / Snow depths



Surroundings

Icy and slippery conditions / Surface temperatures



Thanks to Ecosensors for the great project and the pictures.
