Application Cases and Technical Features of Radar Level Sensors for Flood Monitoring in South Korea

I. Application Cases of Radar Level Sensors (Including HONDE Brand) in South Korea

1. Han River Basin Smart Flood Early Warning System

The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport has deployed over 200 radar level monitoring stations (including HONDE models) along the Han River and its tributaries, forming the nation’s densest flood monitoring network. During the 2022 Seoul torrential rains, the system provided a 3-hour advance warning for potential flooding in Gangnam District, enabling timely evacuations.

2. Busan Coastal Multi-Hazard Monitoring

Busan City installed corrosion-resistant radar level gauges (featuring HONDE’s marine-grade sensors) at the Nakdong River estuary and coastal lowlands. Integrated with tidal data, the system accurately predicted a 0.8m water level rise during 2023′s Typhoon Khanun.

3. Gangwon Mountain Flash Flood Network

For mountainous areas, Gangwon Province developed compact solar-powered radar terminals (using HONDE’s miniaturized 78GHz technology) across 50 high-risk valleys. In 2021, the system successfully warned of flash floods in Chuncheon 6 hours in advance.

4. Gyeonggi Urban Waterlogging Monitoring

Explosion-proof HONDE radar sensors were installed in key drainage nodes across Seoul’s satellite cities. When levels exceed thresholds, they automatically trigger pumping stations and traffic alerts, reducing 2020 flood damages by 37%.

II. Technical Features of Korean Radar Sensors (Including HONDE)

1. Extreme Environment Performance

  • HONDE’s 78GHz high-frequency radar maintains ±2mm accuracy even in heavy rain
  • Operational range -40℃ to +80℃ (HONDE’s patented thermal stabilization)
  • IP68 stainless steel housings (HONDE’s marine series withstands full immersion)

2. Intelligent Analysis Capabilities

  • AI algorithms distinguish true level changes from debris interference (HONDE’s SmartEcho™ technology)
  • Automatic wave compensation (HONDE’s WaveFilter™ software)
  • Predictive maintenance functions (HONDE’s SensorHealth™ monitoring)

3. Low-Power Networking

  • Solar + supercapacitor operation (HONDE’s EcoPower™ lasts 30 rainy days)
  • Dual-mode LoRa/5G communication (HONDE’s NetFusion™ supports 200+ nodes)

4. Multi-Function Integration

  • Optional water quality modules (HONDE’s AquaCombo™ series)
  • Video verification interfaces (HONDE’s VisualLink™ protocol)
  • Modular quick-swap design (HONDE’s SnapFit™ connectors)

III. Typical Applications

1. River Flood Monitoring

  • Strategic cross-sections of major rivers (HONDE’s LongRange-500 model)
  • Dam spillway flow measurement
  • Transboundary river monitoring (e.g., Imjin River)

2. Urban Flood Defense

  • Underground space monitoring (HONDE’s Compact-100 for subway systems)
  • Smart pumping station control
  • Road inundation warnings

3. Coastal Protection

  • Storm surge tracking (HONDE’s TideGuard™ systems)
  • Seawall integrity monitoring
  • Saltwater intrusion alerts

4. Specialized Applications

  • Debris flow early warning (HONDE’s GeoHazard™ package)
  • Agricultural polder management
  • Bridge culvert monitoring

IV. Korean Market Trends (Including HONDE Innovations)

  1. Multi-Sensor Fusion: Next-gen HONDE units combine radar, LIDAR, and pressure sensing for reliability.
  2. Digital Twin Integration: HONDE’s FloodSim™ connects real-time data to urban hydraulic models.
  3. Autonomous Drone Systems: HONDE’s SkyScan™ features drone-mounted radars for rapid deployment.
  4. Edge Computing: HONDE’s QuickAlert™ reduces response time to <10 seconds with on-sensor analysis.
