Reservoir water and rainfall monitoring system: realizing all-round water level and precipitation monitoring and intelligent management

In the field of water conservancy projects, the safe operation of reservoirs is related to the safety of life and property of people in downstream areas and the stable development of regional economy. As an advanced technical means, the reservoir water and rainfall monitoring system is gradually realizing all-round and intelligent monitoring and management of reservoir water level and precipitation, providing strong support for the scientific dispatch and safety guarantee of reservoirs.


1. What is the reservoir water and rainfall monitoring system?

The reservoir water and rainfall monitoring system is an intelligent monitoring platform that integrates water level, precipitation, meteorological and other data collection, processing, analysis and early warning. The system collects various hydrological and meteorological data such as water level, precipitation, flow, temperature, humidity, etc. in real time through sensors deployed in the reservoir and its basin, and transmits the data to the central control platform through the remote communication network, providing accurate and timely information support for management personnel.


2. Functions of the reservoir water and rainfall monitoring system

1) Real-time water level monitoring

The water level change of the reservoir is a key factor affecting its safety management. Through high-precision water level gauges and automated monitoring equipment, reservoir managers can grasp the water level of the reservoir in real time, detect abnormal water level changes in time, and ensure the safe operation of the reservoir. The system can not only display water level changes in real time, but also generate historical data curves to help managers analyze water level trends.


2) Precipitation monitoring

Precipitation is an important factor affecting reservoir water storage and water level changes. The water and rainfall monitoring system is equipped with high-precision precipitation sensors that can accurately record precipitation and conduct real-time monitoring and early warning. When precipitation reaches the preset threshold, the system will automatically issue an early warning to remind managers to take emergency measures.




3) Real-time data transmission and remote monitoring

The system transmits data to the central monitoring platform in real time through wireless communication technology (such as GPRS, LoRa, 4G/5G, etc.), which makes it convenient for managers to remotely view various monitoring data of the reservoir anytime and anywhere. Whether it is daily water level changes or sudden precipitation, feedback can be obtained in the first time, avoiding the lag of manual inspection.

4) Early warning and decision support

Under extreme weather conditions, such as heavy rains and floods, the management pressure of reservoirs increases dramatically. The reservoir water and rainfall monitoring system can perform intelligent analysis based on real-time data and historical trends, predict future water level change trends, and automatically issue early warning signals when the water level or precipitation reaches the warning line by setting early warning thresholds, reminding managers to make emergency preparations such as flood control, drainage, and scheduling.

5) Data storage and big data analysis

The system not only supports the collection of real-time data, but also stores historical data for a long time, and helps managers discover potential safety hazards or trend changes through big data analysis. For example, the system can analyze the relationship between historical precipitation and water level changes, providing a scientific basis for future reservoir scheduling and flood prediction.



3. Advantages and applications of the system

1) Improve management efficiency: The intelligent management of the reservoir water and rainfall monitoring system greatly improves the accuracy and real-time performance of data collection and reduces manual workload.

2) Improve safety: The system can monitor the changes in reservoir water level and precipitation in real time. When an abnormality occurs, it can issue an early warning and take measures in advance, effectively avoiding disasters caused by information lag.

3) Scientific dispatch: Through real-time data and historical trend analysis, reservoir managers can dispatch reservoir water resources more scientifically. 4. Rationally allocate the water volume in the reservoir to optimize the management of multiple tasks such as flood control, drought resistance, and water supply.

Adapt to complex environments: Reservoir water and rainfall monitoring systems usually have strong anti-interference capabilities and the ability to adapt to harsh environments. They can operate stably in complex climate and geographical environments, ensuring the accuracy of data collection and the long-term reliability of the system.


The intelligent management of reservoir water and rainfall monitoring systems is becoming an essential tool for modern reservoir management. It not only provides a powerful monitoring method for reservoirs, but also provides a scientific basis for the rational use of water resources and disaster prevention. In the future, with the advancement of technology, reservoir water and rainfall monitoring systems will be used on a larger scale, making greater contributions to ensuring reservoir safety, coping with extreme weather, and improving water resource utilization efficiency.
