Abstract: In view of the distributed management and decision-making requirements, as well as the rapid development of the monitoring technologies, a intelligent monitoring system based on Agent for tailings pond is proposed.The agents are used to describe different monitoring models, and monitoring tasks are completed through intelligent collaboration between the agents.In this way, adaptability and group decision-making ability of the system are enhanced.This system plays an important role for completely understanding the tailings pond' status and shares information among all of the departments.

Key words: Agent, Tailings pond, Monitoring, Early warning
