Debris Flow Monitoring System

Established in 2002 by GIS.FCU, the Debris Monitoring System offers a central hub for debris flow monitoring and disaster response. It aids decision makers during typhoons by providing vital local data. The system manages various sensor data, including rain gauges and CCD cameras. It utilizes the Sensor Observation Service (SOS) from the Open Geospatial Consortium for data exchange. A code generator by GIS.FCU produces SOS-compatible XML, enabling easy online access to CCD images. The future plan includes incorporating rain gauge data using the same SOS standard, aiming for Taiwan’s monitoring networks’ interoperability.

Integration Platform for River Monitoring and Management Systems

The government addresses river management by establishing monitoring systems. The Water Resources Agency (WRA) developed an integrated platform in 2011 to manage data from local River Management Offices (RMOs). Utilizing OGC SOS standards, the platform enables seamless communication and data sharing between RMOs and WRA. The system detects anomalies, automatically analyzing CCD images to identify intrusions or unusual activities along rivers. Alerts are generated for swift responses. The successful integration showcases the potential of a unified interface for river management, enhancing disaster response during typhoons and rainy seasons while fostering basin-wide monitoring capabilities.
