Real-Time Landslide Detection and Alert System Using ESP-NOW Communication

Electronics & Communication Engineering

Landslides are one of the most destructive natural disasters, causing severe damage to life, property, and infrastructure. Early detection and timely alerts are crucial to minimize such losses. This project presents a landslide detection and alert system using the ESP-NOW communication protocol for fast and reliable data transmission between sensor nodes without requiring an internet connection. The system integrates various sensors such as soil moisture, vibration, and rainfall sensors to monitor environmental parameters in real time. Each sensor node, based on an ESP32 microcontroller, transmits data to a central node using the ESP-NOW protocol, which offers low-latency, low-power, and efficient peer-to-peer communication. When abnormal conditions indicating a potential landslide are detected, the system immediately sends an alert through a buzzer, display module, or wireless notification. This approach ensures robust communication even in remote areas with limited network coverage, providing an effective and cost-efficient solution for landslide monitoring and disaster prevention
