WATR for Coastal and Environmental Monitoring
- Real-Time Data
- Regulatory Confidence
- Environmental Resilience
- Smarter Catchment Management
Coastal regions, ports, and estuaries face growing pressure to protect water quality, safeguard ecosystems, and maintain compliance. Stable conditions, from turbidity and salinity to dissolved oxygen, pH, nutrients, and temperature, are essential for environmental health, fisheries, tourism, and long-term coastal resilience. Real-time monitoring provides continuous insight into water quality, tidal movement, and weather-driven risks.
WATR's connected sensor networks and cloud platform give operators instant visibility across coastal assets and open-water environments. By integrating sensors, buoys, tide gauges, and weather feeds, WATR transforms passive sampling into proactive coastal management. Automated alerts and predictive analytics help teams respond early to dredging impacts, stormwater discharge, sediment movement, and pollution events, enabling better protection of sensitive marine habitats.
Trusted by businesses and institutions around the world
"The value of this data cannot be overstated. Being able to detect shifts in near-real time gives us early warnings of increased catchment connectivity and potential risks to raw water quality."
The Challenge
Many coastal monitoring programs still rely on:
Manual sampling (slow, labour-intensive, and reactive)
Disconnected sensors with no unified data platform
Inconsistent compliance reporting
Delayed laboratory results during critical pollution events
Limited visibility during dredging, construction, or storm surges
These outdated approaches increase environmental risk, raise operational costs, and make it harder to meet regulatory obligations.
