What is SenseOS river level monitoring?
SenseOS river level monitoring installs water-level sensors in rivers or open channels to measure water levels 24/7. When levels reach a graded alert threshold, the platform instantly notifies site representatives and safety officers, so work can stop before flooding without anyone watching the water manually. Units run on solar or battery power, need no mains supply or foundation, and are usually installed within half a day.
