Introduction
Around the globe, landslides and mudslides are serious geological hazards affecting people, and causing significant damages every year
Landslides occur mainly due to heavy rainfall experienced by these zones during the monsoon season and sometimes as an aftermath of an earthquake.
Existing system
The existing methods uses satellite image sensing technology or a camera based image sensing.
But these methods are not the cheapest one also.
Proposed method
The solution this project gives is based upon the concept of low cost wireless sensor networks
WSN can be extended to alert the people in their home through nodes with sirens.
Advantages
The project gives a cheaper method of landslide prediction and prevention.
