INSTRUMENTATION DATA MANAGEMENT PRIORITIZATION USING GEOHAZARD RISK MANAGEMENT

摘要

Many methods of geohazard risk management have been developed for various applications, including for mining industries and protection of highway infrastructure. The most common instrumentation used for management of geohazards is vibrating wire piezometers, slope inclinometer casings, strain gauges, and weather stations (a partial list). Monitoring requirements for instrumentation typically depends on the potential risk of a monitoring site. Alternatives for monitoring vary from occasional manual monitoring to sensors connected with near real-time monitoring capability and alarms that automatically distribute notifications to defined individuals. This paper describes a few common geohazard risk management methods used in the mining industry, the monitoring options that are available, and some considerations when developing monitoring plans.
