Maximize Safety Environmental Monitoring Solutions

Hexagon is a world leader in radar systems based on microwave interferometry. Operating in real time, our radar measures displacements with sub-millimetre accuracy, detecting even the smallest movement.

Hexagon radar enables remote monitoring of large-area movements. With passive measurement technology, there’s no need to access the monitored object to install equipment, which is ideal for hazardous environments.

Our radar solutions enable monitoring of displacements with a sampling rate up to 200 times per second and at distances up to 5 kilometres to detect the smallest vibrations. Operating day and night and in all weather conditions, our radar is always reliable.

Real-time monitoring with our interferometric radar solutions also means rockfalls, avalanches and debris flows are detected in real time and communicated through immediate alerts issued to geotechnical experts and working crews, increasing safety.

Hexagon’s environmental monitoring solutions integrate a range of geotechnical and environmental sensors, such as piezometers, crack sensors and more, to detect and provide additional information about ground movements and water levels.

Hexagon’s monitoring experts consult on geotechnical and environmental sensors to complement and fill in gaps from geodetic and radar sensors, providing comprehensive monitoring coverage.

Our solutions seamlessly integrate a variety of third-party sensors and ensure continuous data acquisition using edge technology. Compatible with our monitoring software, all this data works toward creating the most complete picture of the monitored environment.

Hexagon’s portfolio of monitoring hardware is perfectly complemented with software tailored to natural hazard and environmental monitoring applications. Our software aggregates and analyses data, eliminates data gaps and creates alerts and reports.

Supporting accurate and reliable data acquisition from geodetic, geotechnical, environmental and radar sensors, our solutions enable data integration between geodetic and radar data sets to provide a clear and comprehensive understanding of the environment and movements.

Measurement results are easily visualised and configured to issue alerts when movements exceed defined limits. Together with cloud services, monitoring results can be accessed anytime and anywhere. Our software solutions also leverage edge computing technology to continuously collect data despite communication disruptions.
