Making dams and reservoir infrastructure safer
Sixense delivers industry‑leading dam and reservoir monitoring solutions designed to enhance safety, optimise performance, and extend asset lifespan.
Our comprehensive services support every stage of a dam or reservoir’s lifecycle – from design and construction to operation and long‑term maintenance. By focusing on structural health, material integrity, ground stability, and digital monitoring, Sixense helps asset owners mitigate risks associated with ageing infrastructure, environmental stress, and climate impacts. These solutions ensure that dams and reservoirs remain safe, compliant, and efficient for the communities they serve.
At the core of Sixense’s offering is a suite of advanced dam monitoring technologies tailored for high‑risk water infrastructure. These systems measure critical indicators such as water levels, flow rates, structural strain, vibration, deformation, pore pressure, seepage and temperature, providing continuous insight into dam behaviour. Using robust, low‑power data logging equipment,
Sixense’s solutions deliver reliable performance even in remote or challenging environments. Automated, real‑time alerts enable faster response to anomalies, making these monitoring systems essential for proactive dam safety management.
Sixense strengthens dam and reservoir oversight further through powerful digital platforms and analytical tools that centralise and interpret monitoring data.Our Beyond Monitoring platform consolidates all incoming instrument measurements into a single dashboard, enabling operators to leverage advanced modelling—such as Hydrostatic, Seasonal, and Time‑Displacement analyses—to identify long‑term trends and early warning signals.
In addition to digital insights, we provide inspection services, concrete testing, soil characterisation, leak detection, and numerical simulation, offering either turnkey monitoring systems or upgrades to existing infrastructure.
To improve efficiency and reduce onsite risk, we also incorporates remote dam monitoring technologies including drones, satellite‑based InSAR, photogrammetry, and laser scanning – tools that enable high‑precision assessments without requiring teams to physically access hazardous areas. When combined with our expertise in instrumentation, data processing, and real‑time reporting, dam owners benefit from a fully integrated, modern safety ecosystem that supports smarter decision‑making and long‑term asset resilience.
