This study aims to develop slope disaster prevention monitoring system with the participation of residents, using the IoT slope sensors to save human lives from slope disasters, which are becoming more frequent due to the effects of climate change. Trial monitoring was conducted in Fukuchiyama City, KyotoPrefecture, and analyzed in terms of residents' opinions, slope behavior, and evacuation switch settings. As a result, it was confirmed that the IoT slope sensor is expected to be useful as an evacuation switch for residents to escape from slope failures nearby and that it is beneficial in determining the risk level of slopes that behave sensitively by rainfall. Moreover, it is also found that setting an appropriate warning level as an evacuation switch is necessary by fully considering the slope behavior.
