Dam & Levee Alert

Continuous satellite deformation analytics detect subtle movements in dams and levees, enabling proactive maintenance to mitigate failures before they occur.

How does it work?

Manual inspections and intermittent surveys can miss early deformation in critical water-retaining structures, risking catastrophic breaches. Automated, high-resolution geospatial analytics provide frequent, precise deformation mapping to improve safety and optimize maintenance scheduling.

Sub-centimeter Accuracy

The platform leverages InSAR and photogrammetric techniques to detect deformations as small as a few millimeters. This high precision uncovers early-stage structural movements that manual surveys might miss.

Frequent Monitoring

Automated processing of satellite and drone imagery delivers deformation maps at regular intervals. This near real-time monitoring enables rapid intervention before minor anomalies escalate.

Risk Prioritization

Customizable alert thresholds highlight areas where deformation exceeds safe limits. Maintenance teams can focus resources on the highest-risk sections, reducing inspection workload.

Integrated Data Dashboard

A unified dashboard aggregates geospatial imagery, ground sensors, and historical records in one view. Operators gain comprehensive insights to inform maintenance planning and regulatory reporting.

Cost-effective Surveys

Remote analytics reduce the need for frequent manual inspections and terrestrial surveys. This lowers operational costs while maintaining a high level of structural oversight.

Regulatory Compliance

Automated reports follow industry standards for dam safety and levee management. Exportable templates simplify documentation for audits and permit renewals.

How does this compare to traditional survey methods?
Unlike infrequent manual surveys, geospatial analytics provide continuous deformation tracking without physical site visits. This reduces inspection risks and offers higher temporal resolution.
Why is satellite-based deformation monitoring popular in dam safety?
Satellites offer wide-area coverage and frequent revisit times, ideal for monitoring large or remote structures. Their data integrates seamlessly with analytics platforms to deliver automated alerts.
What are the limitations of InSAR for levee monitoring?
InSAR performance can degrade in heavily vegetated or waterlogged areas due to signal decorrelation. Complementary drone or ground-based surveys may be needed in these conditions.
Can I use drone imagery instead of satellites?
Yes, drones provide high-resolution data that enhances detection of localized deformation. They are best suited for targeted inspections while satellites cover broader regions.
How frequently can I get deformation reports?
Report frequency depends on imagery sources: satellites may revisit every 5 to 12 days, while drone flights can be scheduled on demand. The platform automates data ingestion and delivers reports immediately after processing.
What alternatives exist to geospatial analytics?
Alternative methods include manual leveling surveys, total station measurements and ground-based radar systems. These approaches often require more personnel, have lower spatial coverage, and longer turnaround times.
