GROUND MOTION MAPPING

NHAZCA’s Ground Motion Mapping accuracy for safer decisions
With Ground Motion Mapping, we analyze, monitor and predict ground motion using integrated and innovative technologies. Our analysis provides you with reliable information to support land use planning, risk mitigation and infrastructure management.

What is Ground Motion Mapping?

Ground Motion Mapping is an analytical tool for mapping ground motion associated with geological phenomena, both natural and caused by anthropogenic activities.

Using technologies such as satellite interferometry, terrestrial interferometry, and terrestrial and satellite PhotoMonitoring™, we are able to map ground motion and analyze its changes over time to mitigate hazards.

Combining multiple data sources to analyze ground deformation, Ground Motion Mapping is the answer to examining in detail the chronology of a given geological phenomenon and imagining what might happen in the future, anticipating problems before they appear.

Who is it for?

Managers and owners of road and rail assets

With Ground Motion Mapping, you can design and build your infrastructure based on fundamental information about site stability and surrounding elements to anticipate geological hazards and improve asset maintenance and monitoring.

Public administrations and local governments

Ground Motion Mapping supports urban development planning and in public safety management. These insights can give you tools for defining land development and mitigating seismic hazards.

Mining companies

Use our analysis to monitor slope stability in work areas and plan new mine sites. The goal? Make mining operations safer and provide information to help prevent catastrophic events.

Engineering or geological companies

Ground Motion Mapping helps you with structural analysis and design of roads, bridges, and hydrogeologic hazard mitigation.

Insurance companies

Ground Motion Mapping reduces the risk associated with insured assets such as buildings and infrastructure. With the data, you can make an accurate risk assessment to better manage potential claims.

Oil & Gas companies

With Ground Motion Mapping, you can improve environmental emergency management and use hard data to design, build, maintain and monitor pipelines.

Cutting-edge services offered by NHAZCA for GMM

Ground Motion Mapping improves the safety of your infrastructure based on three pillars: ground motion analysis, continuous monitoring, and land use planning support.

Detailed analysis of soil movement

NHAZCA uses advanced techniques to map soil and its movement to identify areas at risk. We do this by analyzing geological data processed with tools such as satellite interferometry, terrestrial interferometry, and PhotoMonitoring™.
We can detect and monitor geological phenomena such as landslides, subsidence, and other ground changes, anticipate potential hazards, and take timely action to protect infrastructure.

Infrastructure monitoring

After the analysis phase, we move on to monitoring critical infrastructure, such as bridges, dams, and buildings, with the primary goal of ensuring the safety of these assets and maintaining their structural integrity over time.
With a slope stability assessment, we can provide early warning of anything that could threaten the stability of these structures and therefore the safety of the infrastructure.

Support for territorial planning

With Ground Motion Mapping, we help government agencies and private companies involved in land use planning. Using GIS (Geographic Information System), we can return the final result in the form of a detailed map of ground motions and potential geological hazards for more informed and conscious land management.

NHAZCA technologies for GMM

Satellite Interferometry
Satellite interferometry uses radar to measure millimeter changes in the Earth’s surface over time. With this tool, we can detect large-scale ground movements to monitor phenomena such as subsidence and landslides, and provide data for land planning and safety.
Terrestrial Interferometry
Terrestrial interferometry allows us to process highly accurate measurements of ground motion using radar sensors placed directly in the field. This enables us to provide detailed monitoring of critical infrastructure and geologically active areas to improve hazard mitigation.
Satellite PhotoMonitoring™
Satellite PhotoMonitoring™ allows us to combine satellite imagery with advanced processing techniques to monitor environmental and terrain changes. This helps us assess the impact of geological changes on infrastructure and the environment.
Terrestrial PhotoMonitoring™
Terrestrial PhotoMonitoring™ uses cameras and sensors placed on the ground to detect changes in the landscape and structures. Essential for continuous monitoring, this approach allows us to identify collapses, cracks in buildings, and measure deformations.
