System and method for pre-emptive property shifting detection and remediation

A system for monitoring shifting of a structure, comprising:

• a first plurality of sensors configured to be disposed throughout the structure and to measure a condition of a foundation of the structure;
• a second plurality of sensors configured to be disposed in soil along a perimeter of the structure and to measure a condition of the soil;
• an irrigation system configured to be disposed in the soil along the perimeter of the structure;
• and
• a controller configured to receive feedback from the first and second plurality of sensors and to determine, based on the feedback, whether a portion of the foundation of the structure has shifted in elevation and to activate the irrigation system, based on a detected shift in the elevation, to irrigate a specific portion of the soil to keep the foundation of the structure from shifting in elevation.

A computer-implemented method for monitoring shifting of a structure, comprising:

• monitoring, via a processor, the structure for a shift in elevation in a portion of the structure;
• receiving, at the processor, feedback related to a condition of a foundation of the structure from a first plurality of sensors;
• receiving, at the processor, feedback related to a condition of the soil adjacent the perimeter of the structure from a second plurality of sensors, wherein the second plurality of sensors is located on or within soil adjacent a perimeter of the structure;
• determining, via the processor, whether a portion of the foundation of the structure has shifted in elevation based on the feedback from both the first plurality of sensors and the second plurality of sensors;
• providing, via the processor, a notification when the portion of the structure has shifted in elevation;
• and
• monitoring, via the processor, one or more actions taken in response to the notification and adjusting insurance characteristics based on the one or more actions.
