Technically known as subsidence, this issue affects the safety and stability of land, with serious consequences for both communities and businesses that rely on construction and infrastructure.

This phenomenon occurs when the ground degrades, typically due to excessive extraction of groundwater, mining activities, oil and gas extraction, or construction work.

The risks of subsidence

The effects of subsidence are not just a concern for specialists; they pose real risks, especially for the construction sector.

Among the dangers associated with soil subsidence, we highlight:

• Structural damage to buildings:as the ground sinks, the stability of buildings, houses, and other constructions can be compromised, leading to cracks and even collapses.
• Rupture of underground pipes:with ground displacement, water, gas, and sewage networks can rupture, causing service interruptions and leading to landslides and damage to public roads.
• Deformation of roads and facilities:streets, highways, and other essential infrastructures are also at risk, causing disruptions for communities and impacting the flow of goods and people.

These consequences not only impact the safety of local communities, but can also harm a company’s reputation and, ultimately, its success.

That’s why Radaz offers a solution that can help many businesses by predicting these risks.

How does Radaz predict subsidence?

Our radar, powered by artificial intelligence, continuously monitors the ground, providing precise data on its current condition, including subsidence measurements and location.

For example, in 2020, Radaz was crucial in the monthly monitoring of a mining area in Vazante, Minas Gerais, that showed signs of subsidence near a city.

With our solution, it was possible to foresee potential risks and implement measures to ensure the safety of both operations and the surrounding community.

When it comes to saving lives and mitigating risks for your business, relying on the most advanced technologies is not just an advantage – it’s a necessity. Start now to protect your investments and ensure a safer future.
