A08-MONiPOL – Quick to install and automated data flow

The Alberding A08-MONiPOL is a high-precision GNSS monitoring sensor that combines a sensor box and solar module on a single rail. The system is characterised by an attractive sensor price, a compact design, simple installation and extensive protection against vandalism.

The MONiPOL integrates GNSS receivers from various manufacturers. For fast movements, multi-frequency GNSS receivers and the RTK method are used. For monitoring slow movements, low-cost GNSS modules with low energy consumption and the near-online method are used.

The sensor configuration can be adjusted remotely via mobile internet to account for seasonal or weather-related changes in solar radiation. As well as the 3D position, the MONiPOL provides information on the pipe’s inclination and weather data. External sensors can be connected.

The entire monitoring process is fully automated with the A08-MONiPOL. Once installed, the sensor transmits its measurement data to the server at configured intervals via the integrated 4G LTE modem. The raw GNSS data is automatically analysed in the Alberding Monitoring Software (AMoS).

The web-based AMoS software is responsible for collecting, displaying, analysing and archiving measurement data. If predefined thresholds are exceeded, a configurable group of users is notified via SMS and/or email. An API is also available for transferring data to external software packages.
