NBSC PRESENTS RESEARCH ON IMPROVING COMMUNITY SAFETY AGAINST LANDSLIDE HAZARDS
Northern Bukidnon State College (NBSC) participated in the 4th International Conference on Computer, Cybernetics & Education (ICCCE 2026) through Institute for Computer Studies (ICS) faculty member Nilo B. Tubio II, who attended the event at the Mercure Bali Nusa Dua Hotel in Indonesia on February 27–28, 2026. The conference brought together researchers and educators from around the world to share advances in technology and education, providing a platform for NBSC to showcase its engagement in innovative research.
Mr. Tubio presented his study, “Design and Development of Landslide Monitoring using IoT-Based Wireless Sensor Network with Early Warning System.” The research demonstrates that an IoT-based network, with multiple environmental sensors (soil moisture, rainfall, vibration, temperature, humidity, and GPS), can significantly improve landslide monitoring in high-risk areas such as Barangay Maluko, Manolo Fortich, Bukidnon. The system integrates ESP32 processing with LoRa communication for reliable long-range data transfer, while GSM-based SMS alerts deliver automated early warnings. Solar-powered operation ensures continuous monitoring, enabling faster detection, improved preparedness, and more effective disaster response compared with traditional manual methods.
Participation in the event offered valuable opportunities for professional growth and academic development. Mr. Tubio was able to engage with international perspectives, exchange ideas with fellow researchers, and gain insights that can help inform future research initiatives at NBSC. Experiences like this contribute to strengthening the College’s academic programs and support faculty efforts to pursue innovative projects that benefit both students and the surrounding community.
Through activities such as this, NBSC continues to foster a culture of research and innovation, encouraging faculty development and initiatives that have a meaningful impact on the College and its broader environment. Engagement in international forums helps the institution remain connected to global academic networks while inspiring practical solutions to local challenges.
