OTT partners with water resource professionals, organizations, and locations in need of generating reliable data throughout the entire water cycle.
In 2017, the OTT team partnered with the municipal civil engineering office of Bonn to equip two streams with high damage potential and some large catchment areas with measuring stations at twelve critical points. The subsequent data is collected to locally limit severe weather warnings and to detect an overloading of the streams at an early stage. OTT sensors measure the water level around the clock, fully automatically, and send this data via UMTS/LTE to a traffic computer. In addition, video cameras are used to transmit pictures of the situation on site to the control centre. This makes it possible to warn residents and emergency services more specifically and earlier so that they can take final protective measures.
