What you can do with it

Typical work that data of this type supports.

  1. 01

    Hotspots and trends

    Find where contamination is high and whether it is getting worse.

    Because it has: Chlorophyll-a

  2. 02

    Compliance checks

    Compare samples against drinking water and discharge standards.

  3. 03

    Storage tracking

    Follow storage and releases through the season.

    Because it has: Lake Water Quality

Where AI adds value

Ideas for machine learning and AI agents built on this kind of data.

  1. 01

    Risk maps

    Predict contamination where no samples exist, from geology, land use and climate.

  2. 02

    Anomaly alerts

    Catch sudden spikes in sensor or lab data automatically.

  3. 03

    Storage from space

    Estimate volume from satellite water area and altimetry.
