IoT (Internet of Things) based underground risk assessment system surrounding water pipes enables an advanced monitoring and prediction for unexpected underground hazards such as abrupt road-side subsidence and urban sinkholes due to a leak in water pipes. For the development of successful assessment technology, the PSU (Pipe Safety Unit) is under development which detects the leakage and movement of water pipes. Then, the IoT-based underground risk assessment system surrounding water pipes will be proposed. The system consists of early detection tools for underground events and correspondence services, by analyzing leakage and movement data collected from PSU. These methods must be continuous and reliable, and cover certain block area ranging a few kilometers, for properly applying to regional water supply changes.
