Water level observation system using LPWA (LoRa) (IoT-type water level gauge)
- SkyManhole monitors water levels and other conditions in sewer pipes at low cost and over a wide area. - It is an IoT sensor system that can be integrated into the underside of manhole covers. - It enables early detection of urban flooding and pinpointing the sources of inflow during rainy weather. 【Features】 ■ Low power consumption and long operating time By utilizing LPWA (Low Power Wide Area) for low power consumption and switching communication frequency according to water levels in the pipe, we have achieved long operating times (approximately 3 years on battery power) by reducing power consumption during normal conditions. ■ Wide range of water level information collection We have demonstrated wireless communication from manhole covers up to about 1 km. By installing relay devices, the transmission distance can be extended to about 3 km, allowing for the collection of water level information over a wide area of approximately 4 km (subject to variations based on site conditions). ■ Low cost and short-term installation Since it does not require power supply work or specialized manhole covers, it can be implemented at low cost and in a short period of time. Additionally, by utilizing frequency bands that do not require a license, there are no communication fees, which reduces running costs. ■ Security High security is ensured through proprietary transmission specifications that do not use the internet and data encryption, among other measures.

basic information
**System Implementation Effects** The observation method supports two types: offline and real-time. You can choose between two system configurations: real-time observation and offline observation. Real-time observation transmits water level data from sensor nodes via LPWA wireless communication to a cloud server through a gateway. This allows for constant monitoring of water level information without having to visit the site, enabling early detection of urban flooding caused by localized heavy rainfall, which can expedite the establishment of alert systems and optimize the operation of stormwater management facilities. Offline observation allows for receiving water level data accumulated in sensor nodes via LPWA wireless communication using devices such as tablets or PCs, without entering the sewer pipes during site inspections. This can be utilized to efficiently understand the actual conditions of unknown water during investigations and to develop medium- to long-term countermeasure plans based on this information. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.*
