DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEMS

Developed sensors for measuring the parameters - water level, soil moisture, relative humidity, temperature

RBC (Replogle, Bos, Clemmens) flumes

Challenges in collecting dataThe first problem primarily has to do with entering data manually, while the second problem is caused by different colleagues in the field taking measurements in different ways

People can cheat by sending information without being in the field based on their experience / guess.

Mobile Canal Control

Digital Pulsed Doppler or Acoustic Doppler current profiler

contact type• Pulsed wave (PW) Doppler systems use a

transducer that alternates transmission and reception of ultrasound.

• One main advantage of pulsed Doppler is its ability to provide Doppler shift data selectively from a small segment along the ultrasound beam, referred to as the “sample volume”.

• The location of the sample volume is operator controlled.

River Surveyor

River Surveyor• The patented and award-winning

RiverSurveyor®, S5/M9 systems give a new perspective to the notion of measuring open channel hydraulics. Using SonTek's exclusive SmartPulseHD®, multiple acoustic frequencies are fused with precise bandwidth control for the most robust and continuous shallow-to-deep discharge measurements ever. A deterministic microcontroller expertly apportions the proper acoustics, pulse scheme, and cell size to get the highest definition possible so you can focus on the measurement, not the instrument setup. The system even has a vertical beam for precise channel definition and it's all designed to work intuitively.

Aqua Profiler

Aqua ProfilerContact type

The system is designed to measure both, the vector and the magnitude (using twin velocity beams) of individual velocity cells to account for velocity variations within the flow and obtain the flow profile.

A third vertical acoustic or hydrostatic sensor beam is used to measure water level.

Real time Maps

Real-time dataThe application allows water users to instantly access

information from handheld devices on stream for surface water, major reservoir levels, canal water flows/levels. The free mobile app will be made available for iPhone, Android and MS Windows for stakeholders to access information.

River levels and flows

Storage elevations,

volumes and discharges

Canal Levels at nodes

Ground water levels.

Determine water availability, water

allocations and water releases

develop water sharing plans

evaluate the performance of

water sharing plans

predict flood levels to protect people

and property

gauge the health of rivers and floodplains

manage surface and groundwater

resources

The real time is useful

Adopting the irrigation scheduling water usage can be minimized

Generating crop water demand and supply graphs and make use of the same while releasing water to canals.

Predicting occurrence of rainfall in the future by using rainfall probability analysis

Adoption of visualization techniques for quick decision making and supervision of gates, meters and other field devices.

Water delivery would be equitable and also economical
