Automated and remote monitoring
The aim of AMMER is to monitor inland reservoirs water quality thanks to a fully remote evaluation of the concentration of phytoplankton.
-
Thanks to the use of satellite images, the assessments of phytoplankton concentration are fully automated and remote (no lab measurements).
-
Process automation and the use of satellite images allows for a high frequency of measurements (even daily, for large reservoirs) at the fraction of the cost of lab measurements.
-
In combination with the web application, it allows e.g. users of the recreational lakes and their administrators to objectively assess the condition of water from any location.
