River Monitoring and Flood Warning Systems
The application of IoT-based level monitoring solutions in tracking the depth of various water bodies is indispensable. These systems are particularly essential in environments like rivers or other flowing water mediums, where water levels can fluctuate due to environmental factors.
During the summer season, rivers experience a decrease in water levels due to evaporation, whereas in the monsoon, water levels rise due to rainfall. By utilizing i-telemetry’s level measurement solutions, it becomes possible to continuously monitor the water level of rivers, streams, channels, or any other watercourse in real-time from a remote location.
Composition and Working of the System
The i-Telemetry IoT-based river water level monitoring system incorporates cutting-edge technology for automated river water level measurements. Utilizing both ultrasonic and RADAR sensor technologies, devices are strategically positioned along the riverbank. These sensors emit waves directed towards the river’s surface, precisely calculating the distance by measuring the time it takes for the waves to reflect back from the water surface to the sensor.
Gateways are responsible for gathering data from these sensors and seamlessly transmitting it to a cloud-based platform. All recorded readings are securely stored within the cloud layer, ensuring accessibility from any location in real-time. The system’s auto-calibration algorithms meticulously process the sensor data to provide accurate and reliable river level assessments.
With i-Telemetry’s end-to-end IoT dashboard, users can easily access and monitor the river’s water levels, offering a comprehensive and user-friendly solution for real-time river level tracking.
Technical Features of i-telemetry River Level Monitoring System
i-telemetry's IoT solution offers a real-time alerting feature, which promptly informs you about potential flood risks, enabling you to execute emergency plans with the available time at hand. Furthermore, the extensive historical data collected over an extended period by these systems can be analyzed using predictive analytics capabilities to identify trends related to floods. This valuable information empowers emergency relief authorities in their efforts to better prepare for and respond to disasters like floods.
To prevent such issues and efficiently monitor wastewater levels in the sewers, i-telemetry offers cutting-edge level monitoring solutions for flowing water. These systems enable the logging of data related to changing wastewater levels within the sewer system, allowing for the determination of typical flow rates. This invaluable data can also be analyzed to generate alerts in the event of sewage network overfilling, schedule maintenance procedures when water levels are low, and optimize sewer capacity.
