Water Level & Stream Monitoring

Real-Time Stage Data for Streams, Dams, Reservoirs, and Channels

Why Water Level Monitoring Matters

Accurate, real-time water level data is essential for flood warning, dam safety, reservoir management, irrigation scheduling, and environmental compliance. Whether monitoring a remote mountain stream or a critical dam spillway, agencies need sensors that perform reliably in all conditions and telemetry that delivers data the moment conditions change.

HydroLynx water level monitoring stations use high-accuracy submersible pressure transducers paired with ALERT2 data transmitters to deliver continuous, real-time stage data to base stations. Our packaged stations are self-contained and solar-powered, designed for long-term unattended deployment at remote sites.

Applications

Stream gauging and flood warning — Monitor stream and river levels at bridges, culverts, and low-water crossings to detect rising water and trigger flood alerts. Data feeds directly into ALERT and ALERT2 flood warning networks.

Dam safety and reservoir management — Track water levels at dams, reservoirs, and detention basins to support safe operations, comply with dam safety regulations, and optimize water storage and release schedules.

Irrigation canal monitoring — Monitor flow levels in canals and diversion structures to support agricultural water distribution and ensure compliance with water rights allocations.

Stormwater management — Track water levels in retention ponds, underground vaults, and stormwater channels to support municipal stormwater compliance programs and identify drainage problems before they become emergencies.

HydroLynx Water Level Equipment

Designed for Long-Term Remote Deployment

HydroLynx water level stations are engineered for years of unattended operation. Solar panels and gel-cell batteries provide continuous power. Weatherproof enclosures protect electronics from temperature extremes, moisture, and insects. And ALERT2 telemetry delivers data reliably over VHF radio, even in mountainous terrain with repeater support.

All HydroLynx stations are compatible with existing ALERT flood warning networks, making them ideal for expanding coverage or upgrading aging stations within an established network.
