Roads at risk of flooding? Sardinia invests in technology and safety.

February 2020

In Sardinia CAE is implementing for ANAS S.p.A. a monitoring and warning system for hydraulic and hydrogeological risk.

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.

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.
