Areas of Application

Deploy your systems in multiple locations and integrate data for accurate positioning

Slope Stability

Slope stability deals with soil mass stability: an inclined mass of soil needs to withstand its own weight, surcharge, and water conditions, either flow or hydrostatic. Worldsensing’s Accurate Positioning System allows to assess the evolution of ground movements in these ground structures by measuring its displacement both vertical an horizontal.

Settlement Monitoring

An Accurate Positioning System can help you monitor ground structures and the appearance of settlements resulting from heavy loads pressing the ground. By assessing its long term evolution, engineers can take action to protect buildings or other civil infrastructure prone to suffer the effects of these vertical ground movements.

Subsidence and Heave

Assess the evolution of these critical geotechnical phenomena of contracting and expanding soil. Use Worldsensing’s Accurate Positioning System with millimetric precision to take action when these vertical movements can pose a threat to nearby civil infrastructure and buildings.
