Funding Type:        EPA STRIVE Programme 2007 - 2013

Funding Year:        2008

Project Duration:   18 Months

Project Type:          Project Based Award

Total Grant-Aid:      €327,374

Lead Partner:         Dublin City University

 

Project Summary:

This exciting demonstration project represents an important collaboration between research centres, SME and local authorities with technical and analytical expertise to DEPLOY, maintain and evaluate a series of multi-sensor systems to assess the effects of long-term sensor deployment on water quality monitoring systems and sensor data.

The multi-sensor systems deployed can act as a “live” platform for parallel projects and as a test bed to implement and evaluate water quality monitoring systems and deployment infrastructure (wireless data transfer mechanisms, novel sensors, sensor interfacing etc.) required to meet the demands of the Water Framework Directive.

For further information on the NDP STRIVE Programme see the EPA website.
