Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of slope protection, and specifically relates to an air-ground integrated road traffic disaster monitoring and forecasting system. Background Technology

[0002] Heavy rainfall and persistent downpours can easily cause damage such as water damage, landslides, and even collapses on highway slopes. These areas, due to the complex and ever-changing nature of their natural environment, always harbor significant safety hazards. The monitoring equipment on the market is diverse, covering various measuring instruments for rainfall, wind speed, humidity, stress, etc. However, the combined use of these devices generally has many drawbacks: Firstly, their installation locations are often far apart, making daily maintenance extremely cumbersome and causing the equipment's sensitivity to decrease significantly over time. Secondly, the system design of existing monitoring equipment is outdated and cannot keep up with the rapidly evolving technological landscape. For example, it lacks integration with IoT systems, cannot connect with cutting-edge drone monitoring systems, lacks solar power to improve battery life and environmental friendliness, and its alarm mechanisms are too simplistic, failing to comprehensively and multi-dimensionally meet the complex and ever-changing monitoring needs of today.

With the collaborative operation of multiple professional monitoring devices, once the monitoring data changes and the magnitude of the change exceeds a preset threshold, the system immediately activates its response mechanism, promptly issuing a safety warning to the driver through a prominent and intuitive alarm screen and a high-decibel alarm horn.

[0011] Meanwhile, the GNSS displacement monitor stably uploads real-time monitoring data to the cloud service center. Users can easily receive various system notifications using common applications such as mobile phones, making operation convenient and easy to learn. Furthermore, in emergency scenarios, drones can be quickly deployed to the scene to conduct live broadcasts and transmit high-definition images in real time, providing first-hand information for decision-making. If analysis reveals significant discrepancies between the drone-captured footage and the results from various measuring devices, personnel can be specifically dispatched to the site for verification and maintenance, thus avoiding unnecessary deployments and improving overall work efficiency.
