Technological Developments for Lake and River Water Contamination Monitoring Systems Across the Globe

Abstract

This paper is an outcome of investigation to understand how the technology has been involved in monitoring the quality of water in realtime situation around the world. From the review of many papers it’s evident that water quality monitoring system is very much essentional as the scarcity of potable/good quality water has increased across the world due to various reasons, and its found that new technological methods are used to measure various parameters like Dissolved Oxygen, pH of water, turbidity, temperature etc . Many technologies are used to measure the level of contamination at lakes and other water resources. These technologies are invented in silo for specific measurement. We need an integrated approach to get the measurement of contamination by encompassing in all the angles. With the emergence of technologies like IoT, Cloud, Robotic Process Automation (RPA)., we will be able to develop technology platform that will enable to extrack data which comprehends wide variety of contaminants. This paper specifically focuses on the survey of new emerging technologies that can be integrated for measuring contamination with high precision and accuracy in lakes and rivers.
