Mobile sensors 2 can be portable or installed on vehicles equipped with a global positioning system (GPS, GLONASS). The system has a data processing and comparison center 3, a simulation center 4, and a central control room 5 (DAC). The sensors 1 control parameters and the mobile sensors 2 control parameters are connected through a network 6 of data transmission with the center 3 of the processing and comparison of data.

The data processing and comparison center 3, the modeling center 4 are located in the DAC 5 and are based on the data of the monitoring system server 7 and the modeling and forecasting server 8, respectively connected between them by the data bus. The input of the server 7 serves as the input of the DAC 5. The DAC 5 is also equipped with a server 9 of an automatic telephone exchange of computer telephony (ATS CT), an automated workstation 10 of the operator, a pairing unit 11, designed to interface the server 7 of the monitoring system with the server 9 of the ATS CT. The server 7 of the monitoring system is communicated with data buses through the unit 11 for interfacing with the server 9 of the AT exchange CT. The output of the server 7 of the monitoring system is connected to the input of the workstation 10 of the operator, and its input-output is connected to the input-output of the server 9 PBX CT. Means 12 for receiving messages are introduced into the system. The outputs of the connection of the server 9 PBX CT automatic telephone exchange computer telephony with communication networks are connected via a communication network 13 with the inputs of the means 12 for receiving messages.

The monitoring system of the state of the objects (figure 1) as follows.

When any stationary sensors 1 for monitoring parameters or a mobile sensor 2 for controlling them by means of transmitting messages from specific sensors (sensor interfaces are not shown in FIG. 1) are triggered, a message is generated about an accident, and / or a violation of the production process, and / or operational parameter, and / or environmental parameter, and / or geological process parameter, etc. This message is transmitted through the data transmission network 6 to the data processing and comparison center 3 — server 7 of the monitoring system and to the center 4 model novaniya - server 8 modeling and forecasting of the current situation and prediction of the subsequent.

The server 9 has an alert list for each specific situation, a list of enterprises, emergency services, production teams and generates an audio and / or video message, which is transmitted via the communication network 13 to the corresponding message receiving means 12. In addition, the transmitted message from the input-output of the server 9 ATS CT is transmitted to the input-output of the automated workplace 10 of the operator for display on the monitor.

As a server 9 PBX CT can be used a server with software Asterisk.

Asterisk is a free open source computer telephony (VoIP) solution from Digium. The application runs on Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD and Solaris operating systems.

- Asterisk, in combination with the necessary equipment, has all the capabilities of a classic telephone exchange, supports many VoIP protocols (Voice over IP; common name for communication protocols, technologies and methods that provide voice transmission over the Internet or any other IP network (Internet Protocol).

Along with Asterisk software, various warning systems can be used. An example of such a system is a warning system based on the P-161M RMM-8 product, which allows you to use object-based warning systems, send voice and SMS messages over telephone lines.

Currently, a large number of various stationary sensors 1 and mobile sensors 2 are produced, which allow both environmental monitoring and control of dangerous and harmful production factors and other factors that need to be controlled during equipment operation. Sensors are manufactured both in stationary and in mobile version; they can have various interface options (such as RS-232 or RS-485). The sensors have operating modes for reading information in real time (current values), as well as accumulated measurement data. Such sensors can be combined in a network and control rather large areas according to various parameters with the output of information in the DAC 5. For a specific monitoring system, sensors are selected based on a list of monitored parameters and with interfaces corresponding to the interfaces of the data transmission network used (equipment with different types of interfaces). Descriptions of the various sensors are posted on the websites of manufacturers or suppliers.

When implementing a monitoring system at linear facilities, such as a trunk oil pipeline, it is possible to use the capabilities of existing technological communication systems that implement the functions of a data transmission network 6, including mobile radio communication systems.

For example, to ensure the transmission of information from mobile subscribers, the TETRA standard digital radio communication system 24 is known. The equipment of the TETRA standard provides, along with the transmission of voice information, data transmission based on the IP protocol (Internet Protocol). IP packet data service allows using all kinds of transport layer protocols. This can be either the User Datagram Protocol (UDP), which does not provide for the establishment of a logical connection, or the TCP (Transport Control Protocol), which is aimed at establishing a communication session. Thus, TETRA network subscribers are able to use almost the entire range of software available on networks based on TCP / IP or UDP / IP protocols. On TETRA subscriber equipment (portable and portable subscriber stations), an RS-232 interface is provided for connecting data terminal equipment. To determine the location of the mobile subscriber, the capabilities of the GPS system are implemented. TETRA standard systems are professional and are being built to create production (technological communication) systems in the territory of industrial facilities (outside settlements).

Server 7 of the monitoring system collects and stores data on the state of monitored objects, compares them with predetermined critical values of the monitored parameters and generates typical messages to workstation 10 (AWS) of the DAC operator 5. Several different monitoring subsystems can be organized in the system, differing by goals, objectives and controlled processes. In particular, the server 7 of the monitoring system allows you to monitor the health of stationary sensors 1 and mobile sensors 2, to determine their addresses or location.

Can be used different in their software servers 7 monitoring system.

For example, SolarWinds Server & Application Monitor enables agentless monitoring of performance and availability, alerting and reporting for hundreds of applications and various types of equipment. A few minutes after downloading and installing, you can start monitoring almost any application, including Microsoft Exchange, Active Directory, Java applications and many others. In addition, the program monitors the status of Dell, HP and IBM System X servers, as well as VMware hosts. In addition, the program allows monitoring from the iPhone, Blackberry and Android platforms, has monitoring templates and an intuitive web interface.

In addition, servers 7 of the CobraTelecom monitoring system with the Nagios software product, as well as Industrial Systems lab, etc. can be used.

Modeling and forecasting server 8 is designed to assess the development of controlled processes based on the received data in order to develop timely measures to prevent possible emergency and emergency situations. The obtained process modeling data is sent via the data bus to the server 7 of the monitoring system, in which, according to the specified criteria, the corresponding messages are generated on the workstation 10 of the DAC operator 8.

As servers 8 for modeling and forecasting, servers with known or modified software can be used, for example, flexible, open systems for modeling and forecasting (systems based on the method of hierarchy analysis T. Saati) "Esplan", "Emperor" and others, PROGNOZ Platform and others

In case of exceeding the critical values of the parameters of the controlled processes, the company officials, emergency duty services using the means 12 of receiving messages and the DAC operator 5 (for control) simultaneously send the corresponding voice and text messages through the automatic notification subsystem. The automatic notification subsystem consists of a server 9 of ATS KT based on Asterisk and its equipment for interfacing with communication networks 13. Asterisk software is configured taking into account the goals and objectives of the monitoring system, voice and text messages are formed in advance. If necessary, the operator of the DAC 5 with the AWP 10 can prepare a private message, determine the list of alerts and make an alert through the alert subsystem. If necessary, other Asterisk server functionality 9 may be used. Equipment for interfacing with communication networks is determined based on the availability of opportunities to use existing communication networks 13 in the region.

In particular, a wired telephone network 25 and / or a mobile communication system 26 and / or a digital mobile radio communication system 27 and / or an Internet network 28 can be used as a communication network 13 with the message receiving means 12.

Thus, the claimed system allows to achieve the specified technical result - to increase the efficiency and speed of data processing, the reliability of the system in the notification mode, to expand functionality due to:

- reducing the time for the dispatcher to notify the central control center 5, production crews, emergency emergency services (crawlers, emergency recovery crews, etc.) and company officials about the results of monitoring and the occurrence of any emergencies and problematic issues;

- the ability to use technical solutions in various areas of production activities - operation, labor protection, the environment, survivability of facilities, etc.

Specialists understand that this technical result is achieved due to the fact that, in contrast to the closest analogue, the data processing and comparison center 3, the simulation center 4 are located in the DAC 5 and are based on the data of the monitoring system server 7 and the simulation server 8 forecasting, respectively. The DAC 5 is equipped with a server 9 of an automatic telephone exchange of computer telephony (ATS CT), an automated workstation 10 of the operator, a pairing unit 11, designed to interface the server 7 of the monitoring system with the server 9 of the ATS CT. The server 7 of the monitoring system is communicated with data buses through the unit 11 for interfacing with the server 9 of the exchange AT. The output of the server 7 of the monitoring system is connected to the input of the workstation 10 of the operator, and its input-output is connected to the input-output of the server 9 PBX CT. Means 12 for receiving messages are introduced into the system. The outputs of the connection of the server 9 PBX CT automatic telephone exchange computer telephony with communication networks are connected via a communication network 13 with the inputs of the means 12 for receiving messages.
