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.

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.
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 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
