Smart System for Landslide Monitoring and Alerts
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: Landslides are devastating natural disasters that often happen in hilly and mountainous regions. They cause significant loss of life and damage to property. This paper introduces an IoT-based Landslide Detection and Early Warning System that continuously monitors key parameters this include ground tilt using an MPU6050 sensor, soil moisture content, and ground vibrations through a vibration sensor. The system uses ESP8266 NodeMCU as the central processing unit. This unit collects sensor data and sends it to a local host server for real-time monitoring and visualization. A mobile application interface displays sensor readings and sends instant alerts when parameters go beyond set threshold values. The system offers early warning to communities in landslide-prone areas, helping facilitate timely evacuations and preventive actions. The local host-based IoT approach ensures reliable data monitoring, even in locations with limited internet connectivity.
