The quality of measurements in the era of climate change

February 2020

The effects of climate change are becoming increasingly concrete and relevant; also for this reason the quality of data is essential for model to be able to predict and mitigate the impact of any extreme social and economic event. In this context, good design of the shield of the temperature sensors is crucial. CAE participated in the METEOMET project with its THS thermometer and thus had the opportunity to verify its good performance.

Brenner Base Tunnel: geodetic monitoring to detect subsidence

February 2020

A future-oriented railway was created with the Brenner Base Tunnel, which crosses the Alps at the base of the mountains. CAE wins the tender relating to the entrustment of the geodetic monitoring services of the Val di Vizze, the system was designed to detect any subsidence phenomena linked to the progress of the tunnel below the valley and provides for the installation of 5 GNSS receivers and 2 TPS robotic total stations.

New investments in technology and training to increase the quality of services

February 2020

In order manage more orders in the world of monitoring and topographic surveys, such as those relating to localized instabilities or to the construction of major infrastructures, the use of topographic equipment which gives us a complete picture of the risk situation has become increasingly crucial. This is why CAE is keeping on investing...

Serbia invests in the meteorological sector

January 2020

Serbia keeps investing in the Meteorology sector and CAE responds by providing Italian state-of-the-art technology. In addition to three complete stations, also equipped with heated rain gauges that do not require to be connected to main power, CAE will supply 14 PG4i, the new stand-alone rain gauges branded CAEtech.

Underpasses at risk of flooding: Rubiera doubles prevention

January 2020

The installation of an early warning alert and monitoring system for a vehicular underpass at risk of flooding is a typical example of how a prevention strategy can be implemented in a data-enabled urban setting. In this context the Province of Reggio Emilia shows its worth and acquires a new early warning alert and monitoring system for another vehicular underpass at risk of flooding in the Municipality of Rubiera, located in via Fontana.

The Autonomous Region of Sardinia (Italy) invests on an ever faster and multi-risk infrastructure network

January 2020

ARPAS (the Sardinian Regional Agency for Environmental Protection) increases its commitment to mitigate environmental risks. In 2019, works were carried out for the integration of new AIB (Forest Fire-Fighting) sensors and the supply and installation of hydrometric sensors for 16 dams. Not only this provides more precise measurements, but also more frequent: the connection times of the hydrometeorological monitoring network are halved.

Avellino’s Province is increasingly attentive to surface water pollution

November 2019

The area around river Sabato is characterised by high industrial density operating in a regime of intense interchange with the fluvial basin. Avellino’s Province launched a public tender to complete and strengthen the existing monitoring and control system of surface water bodies to evaluate the quality index of waters of river Sabato in the section between Pianodardine and Altavilla Irpina. The aim is twofold: monitoring of water resources and protection and enhancement of local environment.

Georgia: tested the early warning system of Jinvali’s dam

November 2019

Monitoring and early warning system of Jinvali’s dam in Georgia was tested during the second week of October. The simulation test was held, leading with alarm’s sounding system and so to all warning sirens. Engineer Alessio De Faveri, CAE’s project manager, was interviewed by Georgian National TV, while reporting on the project.

CAE and its partners bring the river Piave under control

November 2019

CAE leads the group which won the tender for the project of “Environmental Regeneration of the terminal section of Piave river” managed by the Basin Authority of the Eastern Alps District. The project scope is to determine the real discharge capacity of the river and obtain the necessary information to develop a work plan. To this end, hydrometric level and discahrge measuring stations will be installed and their working will be supplemented by manual measuring campaigns.
