At Geopraevent, part of Hexagon, we design, develop, manufacture, install, and operate integrated hardware and software solutions for monitoring and alarming gravitative natural hazards. We detect ice and snow avalanches, debris flows, flood waves, high waters, or glacier lake outbursts to protect populated areas, vulnerable traffic routes, and infrastructure. We place great emphasis on customer-specific, reliable solutions. Thanks to our interdisciplinary team, we can independently develop hardware and software systems and implement customer projects quickly and efficiently.
