Safety of Existing Dams by National Research Council,Division on Engineering and Physical Sciences,Commission on Engineering and Technical Systems,Water Science and Technology Board,Committee on the Safety of Existing Dams Pdf
Written by civil engineers, dam safety officials, dam owners, geologists, hydraulic engineers, and risk analysts, this handbook is the first cooperative attempt to provide practical solutions to dam problems within the financial constraints faced by dam owners. It provides hands-on information for identifying and remedying common defects in concrete and masonry dams, embankment dams, reservoirs, and related structures. It also includes procedures for monitoring dams and collecting and analyzing data. Case histories demonstrate economical solutions to specific problems.

Remote Sensing for Monitoring Embankments, Dams, and Slopes by Timothy D. Stark,Thomas Oommen,Zhangwei Ning Pdf
"GSP 322 provides information on selecting and deploying a remote sensing monitoring network to assess the behavior, geometry, and potential risks of EDS movement on people and infrastructure"--
Instrumentation, Monitoring and Surveillance: Embankment Dams by A.D.M Penman Pdf
Besides giving an historical introduction to embankment dams the book describes the need for instrumentation, planning procurement and installation practices of instruments. The significance of visual inspection and techniques, of monitoring various parameters, seepage, pore pressure, surface and internal displacements, earth pressures and seismic behaviour, through instrumentation has been described. Collection and processing of data and their use for back analysis to check stability of a dam at various stages of construction and reservoir filling have been suggested. In addition to case histories quoted in various chapters, an exclusive chapter on select case histories has been added which describes the conventional and latest instruments that are being used and methods adopted for installation, monitoring and analyses of data.
Remote Sensing for Monitoring Embankments, Dams, and Slopes by Timothy D. Stark,Thomas Oommen,Zhangwei Ning Pdf
Sponsored by the Embankments, Dams, and Slopes Technical Committee of the Geo-Institute of ASCERemote Sensing for Monitoring Embankments, Dams, and Slopes: Recent Advances, GSP 322, provides information on selecting and deploying a monitoring network to assess the behavior, geometry, total and differential EDS movement, and potential risks of the EDS movement on people and infrastructure.Topics include general technologies used for EDS monitoring, selection and installation of networked sensors for predictive analytics and image recognition, application of monitoring techniques in the design of early warning systems, case studies, and support for decision-makers in implementing early warning systems.Information on a broad range of technologies, such as radio detection and ranging (radar), synthetic aperture radar (SAR), interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR), light detection and ranging (LiDAR), digital photogrammetry and image processing, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), automatic motorized total stations (AMTS), and unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) to deploy the remote sensing technologies is also included.This Geotechnical Special Publication will be useful to both practitioners and researchers to understand and utilize currently available remote sensing technology and to advance and refine the monitoring of embankments, dams, and slopes.
