Measurements collected by monitoring systems represent an information asset that goes beyond their primary use. Data enables real-time decision-making as well as the generation of historical series. Moreover, it forms the knowledge base through which, using Machine Learning techniques, data quality can be verified, and predictive maintenance programs can be implemented…

The Italian Ministry of the Environment and Energy Security is strengthening environmental risk monitoring through the implementation of the Integrated Monitoring and Forecasting System (SIM). In addition to new software and IT infrastructures, the project includes the modernization and enhancement of environmental monitoring networks across the country. More than €210 million has been invested in weather radar systems, real-time hydrometeorological monitoring networks, landslide monitoring, seismic monitoring, wildfire detection, and other strategic infrastructures throughout Italy…

The activities involving CAE concern a total of 4,300 sites, including both new installations and upgrades. This major challenge, developed within the framework of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR), aims to strengthen forecasting capabilities, also considering the impacts of climate change. Each installed component is fully interoperable with existing networks, according to the characteristics and requirements defined by the individual entities involved…

Among the infrastructures included in the implementation of the Integrated Monitoring and Forecasting System (SIM) is the in situ landslide monitoring network, a strategic component for the prevention of hydrogeological instability. In a country with more than 621,000 mapped landslides affecting approximately 24,700 km², 135 priority sites have been identified…
