Integrated telemetry platform for measuring and transmitting physical, chemical, biological and other water parameters in rivers

A platform has been developed for the measurement, transmission, and real-time data processing of various physical, chemical, biological, and other water quality parameters in river systems. The platform continuously monitors and collects data, comparing measured values against legally defined water quality standards in a unified and integrated manner. It provides real-time information to support natural resource management. Water parameters are monitored using an industrial SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system. The monitoring system consists of a central station, a local station, and multiple mobile monitoring units. The operation of all instruments and equipment at the local station is coordinated through programmable logic controllers (PLCs). Data collected from the local and mobile stations are transmitted to the central monitoring station. This paper presents a selection of measurement results and draws conclusions regarding the advantages and limitations of this integrated monitoring approach.
