Abstract

The methods for the artificial hydraulic structures condition monitoring using trace microwave radiometers are considered, in order to timely detect places of underground leaks to ensure trouble-free operation. Several practical examples of the use of microwave radiometers on various ground-based mobile carriers are described. The characteristics of microwave radiometers used in practice for hydrological monitoring of earthen dams are given. The possibility of detecting potentially dangerous sections of dams, places of erosion of the dam cover, possible places of underground leaks is shown. The possibility of combining microwave radiometers with other means of remote sensing, such as optical video cameras, thermal infrared cameras and georadars, is being considered. The advantages of multisensory sensing to increase the reliability of detecting places of underground leaks are substantiated.
