| Zusammenfassung |
Monitoring of volcanic activity is important for learning about the
properties of each volcano and for providing early warning systems to the
population. Monitoring equipment can be expensive, and thus the degree of
monitoring varies from volcano to volcano and from country to country, with
many volcanoes not being monitored at all.
This paper describes the development of a wireless sensor network (WSN)
capable of collecting geophysical measurements on remote active volcanoes.
Our main goals were to create a flexible, easy-to-deploy and
easy-to-maintain, adaptable, low-cost WSN for temporary or permanent
monitoring of seismic tremor. The WSN enables the easy installation of a
sensor array in an area of tens of thousands of m2, allowing the
location of the magma movements causing the seismic tremor to be calculated.
This WSN can be used by recording data locally for later analysis or by
continuously transmitting it in real time to a remote laboratory for
real-time analyses. We present a set of tests that validate different aspects
of our WSN, including a deployment on a suspended bridge for measuring its
vibration. |
