How IoT Sensors Predict Landslides Before They Happen
Lucas and Luna explore a new generation of IoT sensors that detect ground movement and moisture changes hours before a landslide occurs. They dive into a US Geological Survey pilot program in Oregon's Coast Range where tiltmeters and moisture probes at six-inch intervals fed a machine learning model that predicted 9 out of 12 landslides within 48 hours. The hosts discuss the sensor network's 75% precision rate, the challenge of false positives, and how the technology could be scaled to protect communities in mountainous regions worldwide. They also touch on the shift from reactive disaster…
