Nokia says the system installed on the G75 Lanzhou-Haikou Expressway in the Guangxi province delivers real-time reports on changes in the ground and incline stability across highway slopes.
Upon indications of a potential landslide, the system is expected to notify highway personnel by SMS or phone call.
A 4G eye-camera deployed on the highway slope simultaneously monitors landslide status for staff members, the company adds.
The system is based on Nokia’s Impact IoT (Internet of Things) platform which comprises the company's gateway and sensor nodes as well as software.
According to Nokia, Impact allows users to build new IoT services.
The main components include device management, data collection and analysis, alarm management and statistical report and analysis.
The implementation has been carried out as part of a five-year plan from China's Ministry of Transport to improve road safety.
Nokia installed the system as part of a collaboration with China Mobile and CMCC Guangxi.
