PROJECTS

LESSLOSS PROJECT

Sub-Project 5: In-situ assessment, monitoring and typification

   

Full designation:

LessLoss - Risk Mitigation for Earthquakes and Landslides

 

Objectives:

Electronics and IT provide many new possibilities, but require guidelines and methodologies for a proper employment of devices. There is considerable experience “spread” all over the world, but a global harmonised overview is missing. Hence, for Sub-Project 5, the development an implementation of experimental devices is envisaged, with the focus being both on the collection and evaluation of results obtained so far in other projects but also on the development of innovative concepts. Further, feasibility studies and discussions of benefits, which could be obtained by additional measures, e.g. the implementation of monitoring systems, will be carried out.
