  • Reservoir ecological discharge outlets
  • Spillways
  • Open channels
  • Diversion tunnels
  • Downstream river sections
  • Flood discharge areas

The complete solution includes:

  • 3-in-1 radar flow meters
  • Radar water level sensors
  • Radar surface velocity sensors
  • Dam displacement sensors
