AES Telemetric Piezometer

A telemetric piezometer is a type of piezometer that incorporates telemetry capabilities for remote monitoring of groundwater levels and pressures.

Here’s a clearer explanation:

Piezometer: A piezometer is a device used to measure the pressure of groundwater at a specific depth underground. It typically consists of a tube or pipe inserted into the ground with its open end sealed or filtered to allow water to enter while preventing soil particles from entering the tube. The water level within the tube rises or falls in response to changes in groundwater pressure, which can then be measured to determine the groundwater level.
Telemetry: Telemetry is the process of remotely transmitting data from one location to another. In the context of a telemetric piezometer, telemetry capabilities are integrated into the device to allow for the remote transmission of groundwater level data to a central monitoring station or receiver.

By incorporating telemetry into piezometers, monitoring agencies or organizations can remotely collect groundwater level data without the need for frequent manual visits to each monitoring location. This allows for more efficient and cost-effective groundwater monitoring, especially in remote or difficult-to-access locations.

Telemetric piezometers are commonly used in hydrological monitoring networks, environmental monitoring projects, groundwater studies, and water resource management applications. They provide real-time or periodic data on groundwater levels, which is essential for understanding groundwater dynamics, assessing groundwater resources, and making informed decisions regarding water management and conservation.
