Description

This dataset includes validated measurements of physical parameters taken from the continuous HIC monitoring network covering Flemish navigable watercourses. Specifically, it covers the parameters conductivity, water temperature, Chlorofyl a, dissolved oxygen and acidity.

more

The following actions are important in the creation of the dataset:
- installation, management and maintenance of monitoring points in the field;
- forwarding files with raw data from the individual data loggers to a central server;
- picking up the data files on the central server and performing the necessary conversions (ETL system);
- forwarding (ETL system) the converted data files to the WISKI database;
- 24*7 monitoring of ETL and WISKI database system and carrying out corrective maintenance if required;
- regular manual validation of the precipitation data of the HIC monitoring network by the University of Antwerp;
- publication of validated data in hydrological yearbooks (discharges), multiannual overviews (tide area), ... Validated data are also available via HIC-webservices (https://hicws.vlaanderen.be)
