Abstract
In the framework of the National Operational Programme 2007-13 “Research and Competitiveness”, co-funded by the European Regional Development Fund, the Ministry of Research (MIUR) financed the project “AN INTEGRATED SYSTEMS FOR HYDROGEOLOGICAL RISK MONITORING, EARLY WARNING AND MITIGATION ALONG THE MAIN LIFELINES” with the acronym LEWIS (Landslides Early Warning Integrated System). The project aims to develop an integrated, innovative and efficient solution to manage risk issues associated with infrastructure, on landslide-prone slopes by developing and testing a system able to identify potentially dangerous landslides in a timely manner, and to activate all needed measures for impact mitigation, including information delivery. The system includes many components: standard criteria for evaluation and mapping landslides susceptibility: monitoring equipment for measuring the onset of landslide movement; telecommunication networks; mathematical models for both triggering and propagation of landslides induced by rainfall; models for risk scenario forecasting; a centre for data acquisition and processing; and a traffic control centre.
