Meteorological and Hydrological Station at the Port

The system is designed and constructed to measure water level/tides (with optional integration of wave and tide sensors), flow direction/speed, and six key weather parameters: air pressure, temperature, humidity, rainfall, wind speed, and direction, with real-time data transmission to the control room/onshore station. All main components of the system are manufactured by Xylem Analytics Group: SmartGuard Datalogger, tide sensors, connecting cables, etc., all produced and assembled by experienced engineers. Providing a complete solution from a single supplier ensures system quality and responsibility for operation and maintenance.

The SmartGuard Datalogger used at the station is specifically designed for the marine environment, capable of storing and distributing measurement data to the control room/onshore station via various remote data transmission methods such as LAN, AIS transceiver, GSM/GPS/3G, UHF, VHF, Satellite, GOES (depending on specific conditions at the station location and customer requirements).

The tide sensor is connected to the SmartGuard Datalogger via a pressure compensator to accurately calculate and compensate for atmospheric pressure variations.

The multi-parameter weather sensor is a weather measurement tool that provides six key weather parameters for safe port operations, namely air pressure, temperature, humidity, rainfall, wind speed, and wind direction through various combinations.

The SeaGuardII DCP uses 3D Doppler acoustic waves with four beams and a frequency of 600 kHz, with tilt-compensated compass technology for each ping, accurately correcting dynamic movements for high-precision and high-resolution data. The device also has the capability to expand to measure multiple hydro-meteorological parameters.

All measurement data is collected in real-time using Aanderaa Real-Time Collector software, which connects the measuring devices/sensors in the system. The Real-Time Collector software can be installed on any server that the customer chooses. The Aanderaa Real-Time Collector receives transmitted data and provides a powerful interface for higher-level applications (such as data analysis and display programs, databases, etc.) to access easily and efficiently. Remote datalogger installation and configuration can be performed on a server with the Real-Time Collector installed.

Automatic Meteorological and Oceanographic Buoy Station (Odas Buoy)

The buoy station is designed to measure wave parameters (wave height, wave direction, etc.), flow parameters, meteorological parameters, and water quality indicators. Measured data is transmitted in real-time to the control room/onshore station. All main components of the system are manufactured by Xylem Analytics Group. Providing a complete solution from a single supplier ensures system quality and responsibility for operation and maintenance.

Each buoy system includes a buoy body with a maximum diameter of 1.75m made of UV-resistant polyethylene, a solar power supply system with panels and batteries, measuring devices, real-time data storage and transmission devices, mooring lines, anti-corrosion accessories, etc., to ensure the buoy station operates reliably in harsh marine environments. The proposed oceanographic and marine environment monitoring buoy system meets international quality standards. The buoy comes with navigation lights, a compass, GPS, and a radar reflector.

The MOTUS wave sensor is a new-generation device for measuring wave direction and height, using a 9-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU) with a high sampling frequency of 100Hz. The sensor has very low power consumption, easily operated by solar energy equipped on the buoy.

The SeaGuardII DCP uses 3D Doppler acoustic waves with four beams and a frequency of 600 kHz, with tilt-compensated compass technology for each ping, accurately correcting dynamic movements for high-precision and high-resolution data. The device also has the capability to expand to measure multiple hydro-meteorological parameters.

The ZPulse DCS is a surface current sensor under the buoy, based on Doppler acoustic scatter principle, with 2-axis transducers with 2 transducers on each axis. The transducers on each axis transmit short ultrasonic pulses simultaneously (ping) and receive scatter signals to measure velocity components in the x and y directions perpendicular to each other. This data is tilt-compensated to accurately measure horizontal current velocity components.

The SmartGuard Datalogger used on the buoy is specifically designed for the marine environment, capable of storing and distributing measurement data to the control room/onshore station via various remote data transmission methods such as LAN, AIS transceiver, GSM/GPS/3G, UHF, VHF, Satellite, GOES (depending on specific conditions at the station location and customer requirements).
