Actionable Water Quality Data at your fingertips

We are faced with an unprecedented challenge to reduce pollution levels in our rivers, lakes and bathing waters. Combined with the availability of suitable sensing technology, it is immensely important that the data we capture is accurate, reliable and can be interpreted by all; and that means data which can be related back to water quality standards and used by all stakeholders.

The current climate encourages subjective data based on turbidity, temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen and ammonium. These parameters do not provide the impact that Section 82 (Environment Act 2021) is striving to achieve. Although these parameters can provide basic context what you need are water quality parameters which clearly relate to classifications such

as bathing water standards for e.coli or enterococci. We are the only company that can provide continuous data for these parameters. So given the parameters listed above, would you prefer those or parameters with definitive classifications as to what is excellent/good/poor using BOD/COD/TOC/e.coli/enterococci? Our data portal provides you the data and the tools to provide robust and defensible decision-making.

RS Hydro will support you in your journey to create, manage and create actionable water quality data from your remote monitoring stations. Our ultra low power and flexible IoT telemetry solutions allow you to integrate with your existing IoT system for seamless connectivity.

All good decisions are based on good data and so timely, accurate data is crucial for a successful decision-making process. This is why our totally autonomous, secure and reliable telemetry solutions can withstand the toughest of applications or locations.

How do you manage all the data from thousands of outstations? That’s pretty straightforward with the platform’s embedded intelligence; by applying global alarm functionality within your network, instantaneous or predictive alerts can be actioned for any condition; as such, you can rest knowing that your network is in good health.

How our IoT solution works�

Our autonomous connected IoT lsolutions use the latest IoT NBIoT technology and utilise ultra low power to transmit data wirelessly to a web platform. Using a secure login users can view and analyse data in near real-time. Data can be presented in almost any format and even automatically sent to you via email or file transfer. Almost all of our RTUs are deployed with micro solar panels meaning that there is never a need to replace batteries (although we provide battery only versions too).

Dashboards

By combining any number of parameters, nodes or telemetry outstations in your network with the platform’s intelligence, you have an immensely powerful system allowing any single node to interact with any other. Online dashboards can be used to provide the public with real-time water quality data and analysis, including overlaid laboratory sample results. Graphs can be shared on the fly and embedded within any website or saved as a bookmark. We also provide custom dashboards that can incorporate a whole multitude of sources ranging from single- or multi-parameter sources to webcams/videos and API connections.

Total integration

Getting the right data in the right place at the right time is everything and the value of great data will be needed by a whole host of stakeholders: water companies, regulators, local government, landowners, farmers, the public, conservation clubs and charities. Our platform provides seamless integration tools that allow data to be transferred in real-time. Our API plug in, FTP or email connectivity allows clients to transfer digital or graphical data anywhere.
