Smart Water

Dos nuevos proyectos Smart Water en Nueva Zelanda para controlar la salinidad en la cría de mejillones y salmones
El objetivo del proyecto "Ríos Ciudadanos" es implicar a los ciudadanos en el análisis de la calidad del agua de los ríos aragoneses
Control a distancia de los niveles de pH, oxígeno, salinidad y temperatura del salmón con denominación de origen.
Pollution from runoff water is a major problem in urban areas because it has been shown to contain the same types of pollutants found in urban wastewater.
En noviembre de 2015 había 105 avisos a largo plazo sobre el agua potable en los sistemas públicos de las reservas indígenas canadienses que afectó a más de 10.000 hogares y edificios comunitarios. En marzo de 2021 se proyectado habrá 0. This ambitious improvement will be possible thanks to the application of the Internet of Things. The Las Primeras Naciones representan a más de 50 naciones y 50 lenguas indígenas de 634 comunidades de Canadá. Más de 1,67 millones de personas en Canadá se identifican como indígenas (según el censo de 2016). Aproximadamente la mitad vive en las provincias de Ontario y Columbia Británica.
In Russia, approximately 70% of drinking water comes from surface, while the rest comes from groundwater. Unfortunately, water pollution is a major issue in this country, with más de 10 millones de rusos carecen actualmente de acceso a agua potable de calidad. Según los organismos reguladores rusos, entre el 35 y el 60% de las reservas totales de agua potable no cumplen las normas sanitarias. Este hecho favorece la proliferación de problemas sanitarios en muchas ciudades y pueblos de todo el país, ya que sólo 8% de las aguas residuales se tratan correctamente antes de ser devueltos a los cursos de agua.
Beluga whales are considered critically endangered with a population estimated around 150,000 worldwide. In 2017, a natural gas leak was detected approximately 6 kilometers offshore in the Cook Inlet near Nikiski (Alaska). Alaskan authorities responded with detailed and challenging monitoring requirements due to the area being a critical habitat for endangered beluga whales. Libelium’s partner company Aridea Solutions designed a solution to monitor the leak based in a buoy equipped with Libelium’s wireless sensor platform to monitor air and water near the leak affecting the Beluga whales and other aquatic mammals.

Libelium and the Argentinian company Rack2 have developed a permanent flood monitoring system based on IoT technology in La Emilia, a small village in the North of Buenos Aires. Its location next to a river has been subject to several flood alerts throughout its history. With the last flood in 2017, a 75% of the population were forced to evacuate, one person died and more than 3,000 people were moved to several evacuation centers.

The final objective of the authorities was to have a permanent water monitoring system, not only for risk alerts but also to produce a satisfactory water flow, to control and record its behavior. Rack2, Libelium’s distributor in Argentina, has implemented an early flood detection and warning system using Libelium technology, a reliable and stable structure in terms of communications and accuracy.
