Automated water level monitoring system in water bodies

Abstract

The article is devoted to the creation of an automated system for monitoring the water level in reservoirs to prevent the breakthrough of weirs and dams. The paper offers hardware and software for monitoring the reservoir occupancy with prompt notification of interested organizations (local administrations) and local emergency departments.

The article developed an automated system for monitoring the water level in a reservoir, which allows to get real-time information about the relative humidity and air temperature, the distance from the dam crest to the water surface in the reservoir. Based on the information received, the system allows to estimate the forecast time of increasing the volume of water level from the current to the critical level and inform the population about the state of the reservoir.
