Smart Data for Land Stability Monitoring
Effective monitoring systems are traditionally difficult to effectively safeguard assets, maintain operational continuity, and ensure public safety.
We combine advanced technologies to deliver comprehensive land stability monitoring solutions that empower project managers and engineers with actionable insights.
Monitor construction sites, roads, railways, and bridges to ensure ground stability during and after project development.
Effective infrastructure development requires precise and continuous monitoring of ground stability to protect both the project and surrounding assets.
Deploying IoT sensors and leveraging satellite imagery, our solutions provide real-time data on soil movement, moisture levels, and environmental changes.
These insights allow engineers to identify and mitigate risks early, ensuring the safety and longevity of construction sites, roadways, railways, and bridges.
Infrastructure Projects
Assess land stability for safe urban development, especially in areas with challenging terrain.
Our land stability solutions deliver the geospatial and environmental data necessary to assess site safety before breaking ground.
This includes slope analysis, subsidence monitoring, and predictive modelling to identify potential hazards, enabling planners to make informed decisions that optimise both safety and land use.
Urban Planning
Provide early warnings for landslides and soil erosion to reduce damage and support emergency response efforts.
Our system integrates early-warning sensors and predictive analytics to monitor high-risk zones. Automated alerts enable emergency teams to respond promptly, reducing the impact on infrastructure and communities.
Historical data analysis also supports the development of long-term mitigation strategies, strengthening disaster resilience over time.

Our
Cost
Approach
Start with an Open-Source "Pilot" to save costs, then design your own interface
Adopting a land stability monitoring solution doesn’t have to start with significant upfront investment. Begin with an open-source pilot project to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of monitoring technologies within your specific environment.
Once the pilot proves successful, transition to a customised interface tailored to your project’s needs. A bespoke system allows you to integrate advanced analytics, digital twins, and real-time alerts into a user-friendly dashboard, ensuring seamless monitoring and management.

Would you like to know more? Understanding Land Stability Challenges Land stability issues are a significant concern for engineering and infrastructure projects. These challenges include landslides, soil erosion, ground subsidence, and slope failure. Each of these can have devastating effects on infrastructure, disrupt construction timelines, and pose risks to human safety. Regions with high rainfall, seismic activity, or steep terrain are especially vulnerable. Proactive monitoring is essential to mitigate these risks, enabling early intervention and reducing costs associated with repairs or disaster recovery. IoT Sensors for Land Stability IoT sensors play a vital role in monitoring land stability. These sensors are designed to measure physical parameters that indicate potential instability, including: Ground Movement: Tiltmeters and accelerometers measure shifts in the ground, detecting even minute movements that could signal a larger problem. Soil Moisture: Sensors embedded in the soil provide real-time data on water content, which is critical for identifying areas at risk of saturation and erosion. Weather Conditions: Rain gauges and weather stations provide environmental data that can contribute to instability, such as heavy rainfall or prolonged droughts. Technical Specifications of Our Sensors: Accuracy: Up to ±0.1 mm for ground movement. Power Supply: Battery life of up to 5 years or solar-powered options for remote locations. Communication Protocols: LoRaWAN, LTE-M, and Zigbee for reliable data transmission. Satellite Imagery Analysis Satellite imagery complements IoT sensors by offering a broader view of the terrain. High-resolution imagery (15–30 cm per pixel) allows project managers to monitor large areas for changes in vegetation, soil displacement, and other indicators of instability. Satellite monitoring is particularly effective in areas where deploying ground sensors is challenging. Advanced analytical techniques, including Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) analysis, enable the detection of vegetation stress caused by underlying ground movement. Machine learning models process this data to identify patterns and predict risks. Advantages of Satellite Monitoring: Large-scale coverage of remote and inaccessible areas. Cost-effective for monitoring expansive regions. Regular updates for ongoing monitoring. AI Analytics for Predictive Modelling Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a cornerstone of Avant’s land stability monitoring solutions. AI-driven algorithms analyse data from IoT sensors, satellite imagery, and weather forecasts to identify patterns and predict future events. Predictive modelling is particularly useful for: Forecasting landslides based on current soil moisture and rainfall data. Identifying high-risk areas in need of immediate intervention. Generating actionable insights for long-term planning. Our system integrates seamlessly with GIS platforms, providing geospatial visualisations that are easy to interpret. Digital Twin Technology Digital twins are virtual replicas of physical environments, integrating real-time data from IoT sensors and satellite imagery. These dynamic models provide a comprehensive view of the monitored area, enabling: Real-Time Monitoring: Continuously updated with live data. Scenario Simulation: Test "what-if" scenarios to assess the impact of potential risks. Data Centralisation: A single source of truth for all stakeholders, improving collaboration and decision-making. Digital twins are particularly valuable for large-scale projects, such as infrastructure development in hilly or coastal regions, where ground stability is a key concern. Case Studies: Proven Success Coastal Highway Landslide Mitigation A major coastal highway faced frequent landslides, disrupting traffic and increasing maintenance costs. By deploying IoT sensors and integrating satellite imagery, Avant’s solutions enabled real-time monitoring of slope stability. Alerts triggered before major movements allowed proactive interventions, reducing maintenance costs by 30%. Hydropower Slope Monitoring In a hydropower project located in a mountainous region, slope instability threatened both the project timeline and safety. Digital twins, combined with real-time sensor data, provided accurate modelling of slope behaviour, allowing engineers to reinforce vulnerable areas proactively. Technical Infrastructure and Integration Avant’s solutions are designed for seamless integration with existing systems.
