We gave an overview of our progress in the #MakingWaterSENSE project at @modsim2023. A nice opportunity to showcase our work with partners. @eleaf @WaterTechPtyLtd @ChambelLeitao @m_noort @HydrologicNL @wv2017

WaterSENSE gained a much better understanding of water for the environment meeting with @GBCMA, @VicEWH and @DELWP_Vic followed by site visits along the Goulburn River. Thanks Daniel Lovell from @GBCMA! @SiaSydney @SydneySOLES @WaterTechPtyLtd

Wrap-up meeting in the @WaterTechPtyLtd offices in Melbourne, preparing for our Advisory Board meeting. Revisiting our meetings over the busy two weeks. Many thanks for the feedback and fieldvisits! @NSWDPE, @NSWDPI_AgWater and @GBCMA @ChambelLeitao @hydroMeteoGmbH

The consortium is excited that Thomas Einfalt from @hydroMeteoGmbH was recognised with the prestiguous Siegfried-Dyck-Preis by the Fachgemeinschaft hydrologischer Wissenschaften (#DWA) at the Tag der Hydrologie, focussing on multidisciplinary hydrological sciences.

Last day of the 2nd WaterSENSE summerschool. After working on crop detection with Pedro C Leitao from Hidromod, Ignacio Fuentes used #EarthEngine @GoogleEE to analyse dam volumes using Sentinel 2. @SiaSydney @Sydney_Science @Rossi_MJulieta @Brianjacko @wv2017

Day 2 of the WaterSENSE summer school with presentations on ETlook from eLEAF, the Hydronet control room by @Brianjacko from @WaterTechPtyLtd, water indices by @Rossi_MJulieta and automated irrigation area detection by eLEAF

WaterSENSE is happy to provide our latest quarterly newsletter. Please follow the link below to download: hydronet.com.au/wp-content/upl…

Our first paper on estimating dam volumes using satellite data with uncertainty is officially out in EMS! authors.elsevier.com/c/1dCcx4sKhERe… with authors Ignacio Fuentes, @scalzonova and @wv2017 in a nice collaboration with @ARCDARECentre @SiaSydney @SydneySOLES @Sydney_Science

@MakeWaterSENSE has published a paper on Volume and Uncertainty estimates of on-farm reservoirs using surface reflectance and LiDAR. This could be used as an auditing tool in water governance or to gain knowledge on water losses at the field scale. doi.org/10.1016/j.envs…

Day 2 of the @MakeWaterSENSE Summer school with 20 participants. Ignacio Fuentes explaining the @GoogleColab implementation and link to data in @GoogleEE to observe water from space @wv2017 @Sydney_Science @SiaSydney @WaterTechPtyLtd

The WaterSENSE February 2021 newsletter is now available for your reading pleasure. You can find it here: watersense.eu/wp-content/upl… @WaterTechPtyLtd @MakeWaterSENSE @HydrologicNL @HydroNET_AU @HydroNETGlobal @Sydney_Uni @eleaf @ben__tate @nswenviromedia

It is encouraging to see progress on the use of remote sensing to support water use regulation: lnkd.in/gggH-jM The @MakeWaterSENSE project is demonstrating the use of this imagery with @nswenviromedia to calculate irrigated water use. watersense.com.au

Missing water in the Murray Darling Basin is a major issue and Accurately accounting for all the water appears to play a major role in this. @WaterTechPtyLtd is happy to be involved in the @MakeWaterSENSE project seeking to help with improved water use information.

WaterSENSE is happy to be presenting at the Queensland Water Modelling Network Webinar Event on Remote Sensing for water management and water modelling. Register now at lnkd.in/g4c85pm

Mick, this amazing storm fell between all the rain gauges. Fortunately, our HydroNET radar rainfall product captured it, measuring a peak of 145mm, in excess of a 1:2000 year storm! Imagine the devastation had the storm been over Ballarat, only 15km away.

@HydroNET_AU captured this amazing storm that fell between all the rain gauges. Fortunately, our radar rainfall product captured it, measuring a peak of 145mm, double the 1:100 year storm ! Imagine the devastation had the storm been over Ballarat, only 15km away.

@ballaratcourier Incredible! We captured it in our radar rainfall dataset in @HydroNET_AU, which confirms the reports of the Burrumbeet residents. The radar measured about 145mm, double that of a 1:100 year storm. Amazingly, it fell exactly between the two nearest rain gauges. See picture.

Burrumbeet records more than 200mm of rain in a few hours ift.tt/36cs75l

@RBMSAU There are so many benefits and so much you can do with real time or near real time water data. 💧improve insight 💧save time, stop searching for data 💧make better decisions 💧be in control 💧share knowledge hydronet.com.au @Brianjacko @WaterTechPtyLtd

@NeilDufty @FMAAustralia @FloodsOrg This happens in Australia too. The HydroNET Water Control Room connects decision makers to various data sources and provides personalised dashboards, turning the data into meaningful content. The Goulburn Broken CMA use it to manage flows and quality for environmental needs.
