Tunnel monitoring system and how it's working

Question

Accepted Answer

Tunnel monitoring system is a network of sensors and cameras used to monitor the structural integrity and safety of tunnels.

Tunnel monitoring systems use various sensors such as strain gauges, accelerometers, and tilt meters to detect any changes in the tunnel's condition.
These systems also include cameras for visual inspection and monitoring of traffic flow within the tunnel.
Data collected by the sensors and cameras is transmitted to a central control room where engineers can analyze it in real-time and make informed decisions.
In case of any abnormalities or emergencies, the system can trigger alarms and alerts for immediate action.
Examples of tunnel monitoring systems include the TunnelWatch system used in the Channel Tunnel and the TunnelGuard system used in the SMART Tunnel in Malaysia.
