Velocity Indexing

Velocity Indexing

Velocity indexing combines time-series velocity and water level data to calculate stage-area and mean-velocity index ratings. NexSens velocity indexing systems make it easy to export raw datasets for further analysis.

Mast Mount System

Mast configurations can be mounted above flood stage to accommodate all data logging and communications equipment, simplifying mounting and installation.

Data Collection

NexSens data loggers support a wide variety of analog and digital inputs. Bi-directional water velocity readings are sampled and logged with a time and date stamp.

Wireless Communication

Radio, cellular, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Iridium satellite telemetry options deliver real-time data from local and remote locations to your computer or mobile device.

Side-Looking Current Meter

The Argonaut-SL is a side-looking acoustic Doppler current meter that mounts along the side of a river and measures bi-directional velocity, in addition to water level.

Real-Time Flow Data

Discharge measurements can be obtained using a boat-mounted acoustic Doppler current profiler and entered into a rating curve table. Each measurement is correlated to the measured water level for real-time river flow data.

System Expansion

Fluorometers, multi-parameter sondes, temperature strings, weather sensors, depth sonar, and many other sensors are easily added to the system.

Software and Data Management

Using iChart Live software and the optional WQData Live Web datacenter, project members can quickly access real-time water velocity data and make informed operational decisions as needed.

Startup Support

Application engineers are available for training and technical support, both by phone and in person. Our extensive field experience helps ensure seamless implementation of the monitoring project.
