Isodaq Technology has supplied and installed numerous turnkey systems on major surface and groundwater monitoring projects in recent years. In most cases our own innovative technology lies at the heart of many of these systems and clients have approached us because of our unique combination of skills particularly in respect of the automatic capture and processing of hydrometric or flow gauge data.

Many of these have incorporated networks of Isodaq’s low-cost telemetry logger systems as part of real-time applications for flood and pollution warning, and these have been supplied to many of the UK’s Water Companies and Environmental Regulators and other public-sector organizations. Examples of some of the turnkey system applications supplied to major clients are given in the links below. These often combine the provision of engineering or software design, system supply and commissioning often with on-going maintenance services:

An Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) measures and records water velocities over a range of depths. Isodaq Technology source ADCPs from Teledyne RD Instruments who designed and delivered the industry’s first ADCP in 1982. It is now an essential flow and discharge measurement tool.
