"Calami-T", early warning system vs landslide; 6 nito ginagamit na sa Metro Baguio | 24 Oras

  • 3 months ago
'Pag ganitong tag-ulan, lalo pong tumitindi ang pagiging landslide-prone ng Baguio o yung posibilidad na magkaroon ng pagguho. Kaya naman ilang estudyante mula roon ang nag-develop ng early warning system na ginagamit na ng Metro Baguio!

00:00When it rains like this, Baguio's landslide-prone is getting worse, or the possibility of flooding.
00:18That's why some students from there developed an early warning system that Metro Baguio is already using.
00:25Come on, let's change the game!
00:31Whenever there's a storm or even a simple rain,
00:36There's a second landslide!
00:38there's always a chance of landslides or landslides.
00:42When Typhoon Piping hit, it was around 10 p.m. that night,
00:52we heard a loud noise.
00:55What we heard at that time was,
01:01Little Qibungan was erased.
01:03Our neighbor said,
01:06We don't have a house anymore, we're going home.
01:12To avoid landslides and prevent landslides,
01:19Here's the Calamity or Cordillera Administrative Landslide Monitoring Integrated Toolbox.
01:25It's an early warning system that can provide real-time landslide data.
01:35At first glance, you'd think it's just batteries and solar panels.
01:39But did you know that it's made up of different sensors that monitor land movement?
01:46This device is made up of different sensors that detect environmental parameters
01:52like soil moisture, temperature, rainfall intensity, and ground movement.
02:00All of these are important to detect possible landslides or landslides.
02:05The red sensor monitors soil movement.
02:09The borehole is 20 to 30 meters deep.
02:13We need rapid advance technology to enable this system.
02:19And since it's an early warning system,
02:21it's hard to find these sensors commercially.
02:24After 10 years of waiting, we now have the available technologies.
02:31The project was launched in July 2022.
02:33With the help of Php 21.3 million funding from the DOST Philippine Council
02:39for Industry, Energy, and Emerging Technology Research and Development.
02:43Currently, there are 6 Calamity Sensors all over Baguio and Metro Baguio.
02:49And from the sensors, it will transmit the data and information to our central database.
02:58The Baguio City Disaster Risk Reduction Management Office is in charge of monitoring the installed sensors.
03:04It will give us a lead time to warn our constituents
03:09with regards to in cases that we need to do a pre-emptive evacuation.
03:15Project Calamity is certified world class and first of its kind here in the country.
03:20It's a huge achievement especially in providing an early warning system in landslide prone areas.
03:28For GMA Integrated News, I'm Martin Aviar.
03:31Changing the game!
