Connect the points and prepare with a surface.
Attach a lot; understand widely; see risks. Recently, due to the increasing frequency and intensity of large typhoons and guerrilla heavy rains, flooding damage is expanding not only from large rivers but also from small and medium-sized rivers. The "Sokugawa LITE" is a river water level gauge developed to achieve area-wide flood monitoring rather than monitoring specific points. The main unit is low-cost, compact, and lightweight, enabling water level monitoring in various situations, including not only rivers but also irrigation channels and road flooding on evacuation routes. By increasing the number of observation points, it becomes possible to make detailed situation predictions and understand damage conditions early, which can assist in the rapid issuance of warnings through evacuation guidance and damage estimation.

basic information
**Product Features** 1. Low Price The planned selling price is around 100,000 yen per unit (main unit only). It enables the introduction of multiple units within a limited budget to support a comprehensive water level monitoring system. 2. Energy-Saving Design Utilizing LoRaWAN for communication, it achieves energy efficiency. It can operate for approximately two years on six D-size alkaline batteries. 3. Flexible Observation Mode It detects fluctuations in water levels and automatically adjusts the measurement interval. During normal conditions, it extends the measurement interval to conserve battery, and when the water level rises, it automatically switches to a shorter measurement interval to prepare for rapid changes. The measurement interval can also be manually adjusted from the monitoring application, enabling flexible water level monitoring. **Product Specifications** Dimensions: 170mm(W) × 325mm(H) × 130mm(D) (excluding protrusions) Weight: Approximately 1.1kg (excluding batteries and mounting hardware) Operating Temperature Range: -20℃ to +50℃ Power Supply: Six D-size alkaline batteries Measurement Method: Ultrasonic distance measurement Measurement Range: 0.5m to 9m Minimum Measurement Unit: 1mm Measurement Accuracy: ±20mm

Detailed information
-
● The main body weight is approximately 1.1 kg (excluding battery and mounting hardware), successfully achieving weight reduction. It can be installed on guardrails and fences, which were difficult to install with conventional models. ● Due to the wide range of installation options, it can be used for monitoring not only rivers but also irrigation channels and underpasses that are at risk of flooding.
-
●Measurement data can be accessed through a monitoring application that can be operated from a computer, smartphone, or tablet. ●Since it can be viewed in a list on a map, it is easy to understand the conditions of multiple rivers or large areas. The current water level is clearly recognizable as it is color-coded according to the water level situation. ●The time-series water level data collected is sent to the cloud and stored in a database. This information can be used not only during flood events but also for analyzing information useful for river management and for river maintenance planning.

LoRaWAN (Long Range Wide Area Network) ● It is one of the standards for LPWA (Low Power Wide Area) technology, enabling long-distance communication with low power consumption. ● Although the communication speed is low, it is ideal for applications that repeatedly transmit small amounts of data, such as sensor data, and is particularly gaining attention as a communication standard for IoT.
