Abstract

In this article the authors consider a construction of a computer distributed system designed for monitoring geological phenomena such as big rock falls. In order to create universal IT solutions for this kind of threats, authors designed a general concept of a system without using an off-the-shelf expensive equipment. This is the first step to building a prototype of such a monitoring system as well as conducting additional research related to measurement of dislocation and low power transmission.
