Avalanche Prediction Based on Snow Level Monitoring Using Wireless Sensor Networks

Article Preview

Abstract:

It can be difficult and expensive to prevent an avalanche, but preventing people from venturing into dangerous situations can prove to be an easy and inexpensive task. The aim of this paper is to develop an Avalanche Prediction System. Research conducted in order to understand the environmental conditions led to an accurate data acquisition process and an improved implementation of the hardware and software solution. One of the most important characteristics of the developed system is scalability. The system was tested using different test scenarios.
