Monitoring system for railway embankment
A monitoring system comprises movement sensors 100 distributed on a railway embankment; a camera 800 for imaging the railway near the embankment 31; a wireless network 301 linking the sensors and camera; and a backhaul 410 providing external communications to or from the wireless network. The backhaul may be a gateway node supporting GPRS for communication with a remote server 500. The sensors may be tilt meters attached to stakes embedded into the embankment and the wireless network may include a rain gauge. Outputs from the sensors may be processed remotely or by a node in the wireless network using a consensus algorithm to detect slippage in the embankment (e.g. a landslide). If earth movement is detected, a warning may be sent over the backhaul and the railway illuminated and camera activated for visual confirmation.
