ABSTRACT
Increasing concerns regarding public safety, environmental protection, and efficient and safe operation of industrial enterprises dramatically increase the importance and demand for deformation monitoring in the civil engineering, mining, and energy sectors. Development of new methods and techniques for integrated monitoring, integrated analysis, and prediction (deterministic modeling) of structural and ground deformations is a subject of interdisciplinary research effort at the Canadian Centre for Geodetic Engineering (CCGE) at the University of New Brunswick. The recent developments include the Deformation Detection System (DDS) software suite for fully automated and continuous monitoring of deformations with multi-sensor systems, use of deterministic modeling of deformations in the design of monitoring schemes, and use of monitoring results in the physical interpretation of the deformation.
Key words: deformation monitoring, deterministic modeling, integrated analysis, Deformation Detection System.
