Abstract

The objective is to detect landslide and report it as soon as it is detected so that appropriate measures can be taken in time in order to reduce the loss of life and infrastructure and to issue advisories to the public. A camera surveillance system with an image processing algorithm for 24/7 monitoring of flow is proposed to detect landslides. The warning system (up to the issuance of a Common Alerting Protocol alert) is also developed. We develop an algorithm that processes the camera feed and accounts for the factors like frames per second (FPS), structural similarity, resolution of the camera and optical flow in order to detect the occurrence of a landslide. Using a network of such cameras and communicating over the network results in a distributed intelligent system. We also estimate the deterioration caused by the disaster from the output image to estimate the extent of the damage incurred.
