Continuous water quality monitoring for protecting freshwater catchments

Rivers and Catchments Monitoring

How do you monitor rivers and catchments to protect fresh water environments and water supply?

Tracking and tracing nutrients and contamination in catchments helps protect fresh water supply quality.

Catchment groups, individual farmers, businesses, Regional Councils, Iwis and local communities are all facing similar issues when it comes to the improvement and management of New Zealand’s freshwater quality; the ability to accurately monitor freshwater catchment areas including ponds, rivers, tributaries and surrounding water bodies through the tracking and tracing of nutrients in freshwater attribute levels. Understanding on a deeper level the local weather conditions, including rain run-off, and soil penetration is key in developing a better understanding of the health and happenings of the catchment ecosystem.

Continuous water monitoring creates valuable data to aid in water quality and catchment area decision making.

Adroit water monitoring solutions can provide real-time, continuous monitoring of nitrates, TSS, ph/ORP, turbidity, temperature, conductivity, salinity and dissolved oxygen. This data is measured via highly accurate and factory calibrated sensors, connected to a Libelium data controller. The solution has the option of adding chlorophyll A and/or upgrading the sensor configurations so FTU / NTU / TSS, TOC, NO3 or TSS, COD, BOD, NO3 can also be monitored. The Libelium controller transfers data to the Adroit IoT Platform, where it can then be viewed via a web browser or mobile app, with customisable dashboards, reporting, and alerting to email. Data can be exported or accessed via a set of APIs.
