PRIME combines emerging geophysical ground-imaging technology with innovative data telemetry, web portal access and intelligent monitoring. It develops the basis of a new generation of \u2018smart\u2019 earthwork technology capable of imaging the internal physical condition of infrastructure earthworks using diagnostic methods routinely used in medical physics.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure  class=\"img-wrap\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/PRIME_system_201021.jpg\" data-toggle=\"lightbox\" data-footer=\"&lt;p&gt;PRIME system.&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-gallery=\"gallery_63257\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/PRIME_system_201021-150x150.jpg\" class=\"lazy-blur\" alt=\"PRIME_system_\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/PRIME_system_201021-960x731.jpg\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"caption sm-line\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"caption-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/themes\/bgs\/img\/info-caption.svg\" alt=\"Information icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"caption-text\"><p>PRIME system.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"expand-box expand-box-top\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/PRIME_system_201021.jpg\" data-toggle=\"lightbox\" data-footer=\"&lt;p&gt;PRIME system.&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-gallery=\"gallery_63257\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/themes\/bgs\/img\/expand.svg\" alt=\"Expand icon\"><\/a><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<p>The PRIME system uses electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) technology, a non-invasive geophysical technique that enables the imaging of the subsurface. It uses renewable solar energy to power the 10W requirement of the system, enabling it to run without mains electricity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using PRIME, it is possible to monitor the internal condition of infrastructure assets in near real time, with high temporal and spatial resolution. It monitors the moisture content of the asset and can track ground movement, whilst its interface with point sensors allows it to respond to changes in conditions by increasing the temporal resolution of its monitoring schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure  class=\"img-wrap\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/PRIME_hardware.jpg\" data-toggle=\"lightbox\" data-footer=\"&lt;p&gt;Close up of PRIME hardware.&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-gallery=\"gallery_75653\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/PRIME_hardware-150x150.jpg\" class=\"lazy-blur\" alt=\"Close up of PRIME hardware.\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/PRIME_hardware.jpg\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"caption sm-line\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"caption-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/themes\/bgs\/img\/info-caption.svg\" alt=\"Information icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"caption-text\"><p>Close up of PRIME hardware.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"expand-box expand-box-top\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/PRIME_hardware.jpg\" data-toggle=\"lightbox\" data-footer=\"&lt;p&gt;Close up of PRIME hardware.&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-gallery=\"gallery_75653\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/themes\/bgs\/img\/expand.svg\" alt=\"Expand icon\"><\/a><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<p>PRIME assists with decision support by giving near real time updates of the condition of an asset, providing an early warning of failure. This allows stakeholders to predict, rather than just respond to, incidents involving critical infrastructure. In recognition of these benefits, PRIME won the <a href=\"https:\/\/awards.geplus.co.uk\/2016-winners\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2016 Ground Engineering Product and Equipment Innovation Award<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to geotechnical applications, PRIME can also be used for monitoring geohazards (e.g. landslides) and groundwater processes (e.g. contaminant transport). These applications are backed up by a wealth of experience in the geophysical tomography team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Project partners<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><a rel=\"noreferrer
