Experience in Early Warning Systems
Asset management goes beyond regular maintenance that ensures the smooth functioning of the capitals assets. While repairs, replacement and upgrades are critical, it is fundamentally important that the integrity of the assets be protected not only for the safeguard of the asset per se but also for safeguarding public health. This is particularly true for a public drinking water distribution network. Our water quality experts are implementing one of the most advanced systems to detect, identify and warn operators of the presence of contaminants in their water distribution system.
We design and implement strategies to deter, detect and delay threats to the vital drinking water infrastructure
Our monitoring systems are used to inform a number of critical services and applications:
- Monitoring coastal processes to inform coastal zone management
- Tide forecasting
- Forecast modeling for wind and waves
- Tracking shamals
- Implementing an early warning system for large wave events to improve beach user safety
- Monitoring coastal development
- Early warning system for algal blooms
- Establishing a wide scale ambient dataset
- Aiding development of our understanding of the unique dynamics of the regional marine environment
