Tsunami warning system in the harbour

Level
Tsunami warning system in the harbour

Overview

Tsunamis travel quickly and cause great damage when they hit land. So it is vital that tsunami warnings are issued early. Tsunami information centres continuously evaluate simultaneous data from seismic and sea level measuring stations. Such a sea level measuring station is operated by an oceanographic centre in a ferry and cargo-ship terminal. The measurement has to reliably and accurately detect the sea level and forward the data directly to the central monitoring system.

Inventory System

VEGA Inventory System (VIS) is a web-based software for real-time data acquisition, visualization, and logistics management of inventory levels in storage tanks and silos. Companies can manage their inventories proactively, ensuring greater flexibility in delivery schedules, expanding optimization options, and reducing stock discrepancies. Precise, real-time visualization of stocks allows deviations to be quickly identified, minimizing financial impact. The system combines reliable VEGA measurement technology for liquids and bulk solids with secure cloud-based or on-premises software, providing the basis for intelligent and strategic decisions for optimal inventory management. VIS supports both internal inventory monitoring and Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) applications, where suppliers manage customer stock replenishment using real-time level data.

  • Real-time inventory monitoring across all connected storage locations via web browser or mobile app
  • Four visualization modes — Chart, Graphic, Map, and Trend — for comprehensive stock visibility
  • Color-coded traffic light status system (green/yellow/red) for instant stock level assessment
