On June 24th<\/sup>, 2025, the Eucentre Foundation will host the workshop for the presentation of the MODISAT – MOnitoraggio DInamico di ponte mediante misure di spostamento derivate da tecnologie SATellitari <\/strong>(MODISAT – Dynamic Bridge Monitoring Using Displacement Measurements Derived from Satellite Technologies<\/strong>) project, financed by the Italian Space Agency (ASI) <\/strong>within the I4DP Downstream and Application Services programme.
\nThe meeting, scheduled to take place in the Multimedia Room of the Pavia headquarters from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., will provide an up-to-date overview of the state of the art and prospects for structural monitoring of bridges and viaducts, a crucial area for ensuring public safety and sustainable mobility.<\/p>\n

Why monitor infrastructure?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Every day, critical infrastructures such as bridges and viaducts are subjected to dynamic and cyclical loads generated by vehicular traffic, along with environmental stresses, including temperature variations, humidity, and aggressive weathering. These factors accelerate structural degradation processes such as material fatigue, corrosion of steel and deterioration of concrete and masonry.
\nNumerous studies have shown that ageing infrastructure, often aggravated by untimely or inadequate maintenance, can lead to a progressive decline in operating conditions and an increased risk of structural collapse. Recent events have highlighted the vulnerability of national infrastructure heritage and underscored the need for predictive monitoring strategies based on state-of-the-art technologies and preventive maintenance.
\nStructural monitoring is not only a technical choice but also a necessity for implementing preventive maintenance, which is oriented towards preventing failure and collapse phenomena, thereby ensuring safety and operational continuity.<\/p>\n

The MODISAT platform<\/strong><\/h2>\n

MODISAT is a web-based platform that integrates the best technology for the continuous and intelligent monitoring of critical infrastructures. Among its main functionalities:<\/p>\n
