Project:

Autonomous, Precision GNSS Monitoring of Shuibuya Dam

Location:

Qingjiang River, Badong County, Enshi, Hubei Province, China (2013)

Purpose:

Detection of mm level displacements of hydroelectric power dam

Configuration:

1 reference stations, 3 monitored stations

Communications:

Local WiFi and global Internet network

Details:

The Shuibuya dam is the tallest concrete face rock-fill embankment dam in the world at 233 m tall. To monitor its safety, GNT’s mmVu® GNSS deformation monitoring system has been installed at the dam lately. The mmVu® system provides mm-level, 3D positions in real-time, 24/7.
