 LEICA GEOSYSTEMS MONITORING

1. Background
Monitoring is a continuous measurement used to show the deformation of a structure
in one, two or three dimensions. Project monitoring can use several types of sensors,
for example TPS, GPS, Temperature, Tilt, etc.

Project Monitoring can be carried out over a long period of time (long periods) or in a
short period of time (short periods). Measurement of structural movement may be
carried out during construction work. Observations of the nature of the movement of
slopes and cliffs in open pit mines are usually carried out on an annual basis.

Why is monitoring necessary?

• Because every second, there is a movement in our Earth.

• Measurement/observation can help a PREDICTION – when will Deformation occur or

help Long Term monitoring.

• To maintain the safety of employees, equipment and machines (can predict areas
that may occur landslides)

• Monitoring regulation of the Government

• Reduces Risk and Insurance Premiums paid by the Company to Employees – If an

accident occurs due to Soil Deformation, Structure, or Landslide.
1.1. Visual Monitoring
Visual Monitoring means monitoring movement or deformation only based on regular
eye observations without using special tools, either manual or automatic equipment.

1.2. AUTOMATIC MONITORING

Automatic Monitoring Automatic Monitoring is a method of collecting monitoring
data by placing several monitoring tools in the field and operating them continuously
for 24 hours.
Reasons to use AUTOMATIC MONITORING?
• Movement occurs continuously.
• Automatically helps CALCULATION OF MOVEMENT REAL TIME, online analysis
and can provide Warning Messages.
• Analysis is more accurate when measuring Automatic Monitoring.
• The location of the observed measurement is not always accessible (when
doing it with visual monitoring).
• Manual measurement wastes a lot of time and requires a lot of manpower.
• Automatic Monitoring systems reduce Human Errors when observing.
• Efficient, fast and reliable.
Monitoring Parameter:

The Purpose of Structural Monitoring with Monitoring Systems:

• As input for the Civil Engineer / Geotechnical team to analyze structure

stability

• For giving warnings/alarms, if there is strong movement in the project area

• Minimize any negative potential from a slope or structure movement

• Provide data for short-term or long-term planning

• Improve safety

• Real time analysis of structure conditions

This system is very useful when used in mine monitoring, especially for monitoring
real time and online movements. Thus with this system, we can anticipate risks that
arise as early as possible and can take precautions as quickly and efficiently as
possible. This system also makes it possible to connect all sensors installed in the
mine area and around the mine so that the analysis becomes more leverage and
also provides extraordinary benefits.

With this system, we can get a reliable and reliable database regarding the current
condition of existing mines and can make decisions reliably based on existing data if
one day there is a problem.

In addition, with this monitoring system, the Client will have a historical database of
all existing sensors which can later be used as a basis for investigations if something
unwanted occurs.

2.3. Software and Hardware Specifications
GeoMos Software (Geodetic Monitoring Systems)
Geomos software consists of two main components, namely Geomos Monitor and
Geomos Analyzer.

The differences and their respective functions are as follows:

GeoMos Monitor

Geomos monitor functions for

maintenance of measurement
sensors, data storage of
measurement data computation
results and inspection of results
and generalization of messages.

GeoMos Analyzer

Geomos Analyzer serves to

analyze measurements and
computational results. In addition, Geomos Analyzer also has the ability to print and
export monitored data.

Some of the main functions and excellent features of GeoMos Software, namely:

GeoMos Limit Classes

The advantage of using this feature (Geomos Limit Classes) is that it helps provide
reports on the dam situation to several divisions and top management, for example if
the Movement Situation is Alert-3, Geomos only provides SMS/Email to the Civil
Engineering (PCT) team and/or Geotech, Standby-2 Geomos will provide SMS/Email
to the Head of Engineering Division team, Standby-1 Geomos will provide
SMS/Email to Project Manager and top management.
In Geomos Software, there is also an application for setting warning alerts to several
users according to their division, for example:

• Communication Lost, GEOMOS will send an email to the IT team

• Theodolite not defined, Geomos will email the Survey or Civil team.

• Power Failure, Point not Found, later Geomos will send an email to the IT or
Supporting team.

• The compensator is out of range, meaning that the RTS does not level or
moves from its original position, then stops monitoring and must be returned
to its initial position. In this case Geomos will provide an email or SMS to the
Civil Engineering team.

False Alarm Detection

Geomos monitoring software has the ability to filter measurement data obtained from
the Robotic total station, including:

• Blunder check Tolerance

• Compensator check

The function of this algorithm is to filter the data and give a warning if there is a prism
or data that suddenly jumps suddenly due to external factors. This algorithm can be
forwarded to the notification function in the form of an alarm or sms and email.

.
 Blunder tolerance check

In the notification or messaging function, Geomos Monitoring has an algorithm,

namely regression check. The function of this regression check algorithm is to filter
the measurement data whether it really exceeds the class limit that we provide and
not trigger an alarm or notification if there is a sudden jump in noise data.

Regression Limit check

Viewer History Record Data.

In this application in Geomos, it is easier for users to present data from previous
observations to those that have been updated at this time. For example, the
Engineering team wants to see the history of the stability of a slope from January
2013 to January 2014, simply by selecting the Viewer menu in Geomos. As shown
in the next image.
The GeoMos Analyzer application can display several graphs. This graph is a
visualization of data obtained from measurement results using monitoring sensors
installed in the field, which is then processed using a calculation algorithm
embedded in the GeoMos software. The charts are:

a. Longitudinal Displacement

This graph contains the longitudinal movement of the prism, if the graph is flat
then it is ensured that there is no significant movement of the prism

The graph shows the

yellow and navy blue
prism showing
movement at the
prism location.
Compared to Prisma
which is white and
purple, the graphics
tend to be STABLE.
b. Velocity

Movement Speed (m/day)

c. Transverse Displacement

This graph contains the transverse movement (left/right) of the prism. If the graph
is flat, it means that there is no significant movement of the prism.
d. Height Displacement

This graph contains changes in the height of the prism, if the graph is flat, it is
ensured that there is no significant movement of the prism.

e. 2D Vector

Vector is: The resultant of the measurement results which shows the direction of
the actual movement of the prism (the direction of movement of the deformation).

Or it can also be called the resultant direction of the longitudinal movement and
transverse displacement (mm).

This Report Menu shows the data stored from the observations in the field and
can be saved in *.CSV format.

g. Background Map

Background MAP is used to adjust whether the point that we are observing, its
location and position are in accordance with the actual image of the field
conditions. From the existing image, it will later be Georeferenced. As shown in
the image below:

3. Leica Gesystems Monitoring Systems Application

Tunnel Monitoring
In the image below, an example of installing the Leica Monitoring System:

From the Image Example of a Leica Monitoring System Installation, the tools needed
are:
• 1 Total Station Monitoring
• 2 Backsight Prisms
• Several Monitoring Prisms are distributed at the location to be monitored.
The picture is an example of the best monitoring system installation that we usually
recommend to our clients.

In addition, to improve monitoring data, the GNSS Monitoring tool can be added to
see if there is movement or not at the reference point that is used as a reference.
4. Robotic Total Station Design Example
For the Design Anniversary / PILAR Total Station, you can follow the example in the
image below. Anniversary design like this can provide convenience when moving the
position of the observation location (only need to move the BOX Power and Total
Station).

Total Station B
5. Robotic Total Station Installation
The difference between Monitoring Total Station with Manual and Automatic
methods:

• Slope Shift Data Analysis

Automatic: analysis is more accurate, because the observed data is 24-
hour observation data

Manual: the observation data is usually only morning and evening data

• Time
Automatic: saves more time, because it has been permanently installed in
the location of the area to be observed.

Manual: it takes a long time for the initial setup of the station to make
observations.

• Efficiency
Automatic: Saves Man Power more because the sensor used is Robotic. It
is enough to check the unit in the field by an engineer.

Manual: Requires a minimum of 3 (three) engineers for the initial setup,

namely one user for the Sensor Total Station and two users for the
Reference Point (backsight).

• Human error
Automatic: automatic monitoring systems reduce human error when
observing.

Thus, we convey this information, if there is information that is not clear, you can
contact us.

Thank you for your attention.

Best regards.
