Water Resources Management
Innovative Maritime Solutions for Sustainable Water Resource Management
OPT’s advanced maritime technologies are uniquely suited to support the sustainable management and monitoring of water resources. The PowerBuoy® systems and WAM-V® USVs can be pivotal in various aspects of water resource management, from water quality monitoring to resource exploration and environmental protection.

Continuous Water Quality Monitoring with PowerBuoy® Systems
- Uninterrupted Power Supply for Sensors: PowerBuoys® can provide a reliable and continuous power source for water quality monitoring sensors. These sensors can measure various parameters, including pH, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, and contaminants.
- Real-Time Data Transmission: With integrated communication systems, data collected from these sensors can be transmitted in real time to shore-based facilities for analysis and action

Efficient Surveying and Data Collection with WAM-V® USVs
- Detailed Environmental Surveys: WAM-V® USVs can be equipped with a range of environmental monitoring instruments to conduct comprehensive surveys of water bodies. This is crucial for assessing the health of ecosystems, tracking pollution sources, and understanding hydrological dynamics.
- Versatile Deployment: The lightweight and modular design of the WAM-V® allows for easy deployment in various water environments, from inland waterways to coastal areas.

Resource Exploration and Environmental Impact Assessments
- Exploration of Water Resources: WAM-V® USVs can be used for exploring underwater resources, such as aquifers or mineral deposits, providing valuable data for sustainable resource management.
- Impact Assessment: Both PowerBuoy® and WAM-V® systems can assist in conducting environmental impact assessments by monitoring changes in water quality and ecosystem health over time.

Flood Monitoring and Disaster Response
- Timely Flood Data: In flood-prone areas, the deployment of PowerBuoys® equipped with sensors can provide critical data for flood monitoring and early warning systems.
- Rapid Environmental Assessment (REA): WAM-V® USVs can be rapidly deployed in disaster situations to assess water conditions, assist in rescue operations, and evaluate environmental impacts.
