24/7 Monitoring
Continuous monitoring, day and night
What is a monitoring survey?
A monitoring survey is the continuous measurement of movement in a structure and in the ground around it, so you see what changes before it turns into damage. The equipment stays on site for the whole project and measures on its own schedule. The readings arrive automatically in the web portal, day and night. You look at where the structure stands today, at any hour.

When continuous movement monitoring is needed
On long-running projects or high-risk situations, manual surveying is not always practical. The environment changes continuously, the time intervals between measurements are too long, or the location is hard to reach. Automated monitoring solves this.
Automated total stations and sensors on site
We install total stations and sensors that measure independently at fixed intervals. The measurement data is automatically collected, processed and made available through a web portal. You have 24/7 insight into the status of your structures and sites. When threshold values are exceeded, you receive an immediate notification.
Structural monitoring for excavation pits, tunnels and dikes
The system is suitable for excavation pits, tunnel boring, dike reinforcement and industrial processes.
We also monitor industrial processes and long-running infrastructure projects, where the measurement series has to keep running for years.
Threshold values and alerts in the monitoring plan
Together with you we draw up a monitoring plan that describes which parameters are monitored, which threshold values apply and how alerts are handled.
We set the threshold values in advance, together with you and, where relevant, the structural engineer, along with the measurement frequency and the alert route.
What the monitoring system delivers
Automated total stations and sensors
Real-time data through a web portal
Automated alerts on threshold values
Historical data analysis and trend reporting
Frequently asked questions about monitoring
The most asked questions about 24/7 Monitoring. Question not listed? Feel free to get in touch.
Depending on the sensors: displacements (horizontal and vertical), pore water pressure, groundwater levels, vibrations, crack width and tilt. We advise which parameters are relevant for your project.
Through a secure online environment you have 24/7 access to current measurement data. You see graphs, trend lines and the status of all measurement points. The portal is accessible from any computer or phone.
From a few weeks to several years. The system is designed for long-term deployment. We handle maintenance and calibration throughout the entire runtime.
Yes, we do this regularly. Automated for continuous monitoring of critical points, supplemented with periodic manual measurements at additional locations or for verification.
The system sends an alert the moment a reading passes the agreed limit. We then contact you, verify the measurement and advise on the next steps. The monitoring plan records in advance who receives that alert and at which value it is triggered.
“We are very satisfied with the dimensional control service across various projects. From the very first contact, communication has run smoothly.”
“Michael had everything worked out the day before and was able to come the very next day. Delivers good work and is professional. We are very satisfied.”
“The dimensional control service was excellent. The team delivered accurate and timely results, which kept the project running smoothly.”
Services that often go with monitoring
Deformation Monitoring
Detect settlement before damage occurs. Periodic measurements at quay walls, bridges and industrial structures give you timely insight.
As-built Verification
Verify that everything is where it should be. As-built measurements make deviations immediately visible so you can adjust in time.
Land Surveying
Lay the geodetic foundation for your project. From site survey and topography to setting out, so your construction team can get started immediately.
