Zusammenfassung:Methods of processing a data signal obtained from a sensor sensing a dynamic signal to detect a structural anomaly event are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method includes obtaining signal components attributable to fluid flow at a location within an operational pipeline network; processing the data signal to extract one or more features; characterising the one or more extracted features; and detecting an indication of a structural anomaly event proximal the location depending on the characterisation; wherein the structural anomaly event includes an occurrence and/or further development of a structural anomaly.
