Flooding can block critical transport routes, causing damage to infrastructure
Transport infrastructure and urban areas worldwide face growing flood risk due to more frequent extreme rainfall events causing surface runoff levels well beyond the capacity of existing drainage systems.
Smarter management of drainage assets such as pipes, channels, culverts and chambers is essential to mitigate the risk of damage and disruption due to floodwater and related earthworks, structural and systems failure.
Senceive’s flood monitoring system provides near real-time water level monitoring to help asset managers detect drainage issues early and implement effective impact mitigation measures.
Automated early warning of drainage culvert and flooding problems
Senceive’s wireless smart drainage monitoring system, protected by InfraGuard, delivers a comprehensive monitoring solution to help asset owners mitigate the risk of floods affecting critical infrastructure. The system integrates multiple sensor types for continuous, real-time monitoring of key drainage conditions.
Catchpit deployment
Water Level Monitoring - The Optical Displacement Sensor (ODS) accurately measures water accumulation levels in Open water, beneath bridges, drainage culverts, manholes and catchpits, helping to detect early signs of culvert flooding.
Soil Moisture Monitoring - Wireless soil moisture sensors assess ground saturation, providing insights into potential slope instability.
Weather Monitoring – Strategically located weather stations can provide highly targeted rainfall data, ensuring that drainage culverts and slopes are monitored in relation to precipitation levels. Sampling rates of other sensors increase when the weather station detects significant rainfall.
Visual Verification - An optional 4G Camera provides near real-time imagery of culverts, slopes, and drainage pipes, enabling asset managers to verify culvert blockages and flood conditions without visiting site. This easy remote verification process can reduce the number of false alerts.
Key features of wireless remote drainage monitoring include:
Long Battery Life – Designed for extended operation with minimal maintenance.
High-Quality Camera Images – Provides clear visual confirmation of drainage conditions-day and night
Immediate Alerts – Real-time notifications enable fast decision-making and early intervention, ensuring early detection of culvert blockages before they escalate into urban floods or infrastructure failures.
Solar Powered – Operates independently of external power sources, ensuring continuous power in remote locations.
Dynamic Sampling & Reporting – Automated data collection adjusts to changing conditions, ensuring critical events are captured in detail.
