LEVEE EROSION DETECTION
Automated Levee Erosion Monitoring and Detection
When it comes to Levee Safety, deterioration and failure due to erosion is of particular concern for communities living near or behind a levee.
During high water events, erosion can take place at or below the water surface. Even if a levee is being patrolled during an event, unseen erosion can be threatening the levee’s structural integrity.
Our Remote Erosion Monitoring System (REMS) provides advance warning that erosion has taken place before the water recedes. As a result, this early warning can provide time to fight the problem immediately where possible, warn emergency managers and, when appropriate, evacuate citizens that are at risk behind the levee.
Remote Erosion Monitoring System (REMS™) for Levees
Risk reduction through early warning.
A network of embedded Beacons provide early detection of erosion with automated notifications to key personnel.

About REMS
Applications
- Known sites where erosion has already occurred, but repairs have not yet taken place
- Urban levees where advanced warning can provide for more timely evacuation and reduce loss of life
- Areas just upstream and downstream of stretches that have been rock faced
- Locations exposed to potential high flow velocities, determined by hydraulic modeling
- Older levees of sub-standard construction
- Levees with year-round water exposure (e.g., Delta levees)
