Abstract :
It is important that monitoring tank-lorries and bulk-lorries which transport poisonous gas, flammable materials. For safety, continuous monitoring the status of vehicles and tanks is needed in the course of following the entire path from start point to the destination. Therefore, in this paper, we propose about the safety monitoring system for a tank-lorry carrying dangerous gases. By the sensor nodes which are attached to vehicle, we do monitoring and collecting data on vehicle-status. And we considered about management of tank-lorries by the cooperation with the central control system. Based on sensor data, we apply algorithm that adjudge the level of dangerous of the vehicle and warn to the driver.
