Resiliants: WATER aims to create a predictive dashboard for avocado...
Updated, detailed information and data acquisition on the displacement and location of flood defences is essential in emergency situations. To protect and maintain the integrity of flood defences under stress condition often specific locations have to be monitored in detail. Rapid measurements in these situations are however often hindered by limited access, limited detail or long processing times. Recent developments in miniaturization of laser altimetry instruments and drone technologies have enabled a solution for these situations, Drone+LiDAR. It is now possible to aquire high quality lidar – height measurements of specific locations in near real time and on a continuus basis. This will allow for accurate change mapping of specific areas where a dike collapse or breach could occur, or where emergency measures have to be monitored. Stress conditions can either occur in periods of extreme droughts, in periods of (extreme) high water or as a result of an emergency situation.
Developed by Shore Monitoring & Research ism SJF projects & support
LiDAR is a proven solution to map the condition and deformation of flood defenses, which is particularly suited for emergencies. With the emergence of DRONES and miniature LIDAR systems these proven detailed and reliable height mesurements can be applied virtual everywhere and under most circumstances. Using an Automated rapid processing protocol the measurements are transformed to useful products, like changemaps for instant decision making.

The innovation is based on three elements:
Limitations/conditions under which this innovation does not work or is less effective
The innovation is dependent on relative good weather. During intermediate winds it can be used, but in the severest of storms it cannot measure with accuracy
Added value
The main difference with traditional measurements (GPS, Photogrammetry drones) is the high detail and accuracy, while access to the site is not required. This enables for instance even measurements close to a breach. The use of drones over airplane, results in a faster response and reduced costs.

The main components of the system have been tested separately, and an initial integration exercise has been conducted.
