Hydrological monitoring is a continuous or intermittent process of testing the water source, water quantity (including flow, water level, flood tide), water quality (including organic, inorganic and radioactive substances and other pollutants of the comprehensive indicators) and the ecological environment of the waters from the perspective of hydrology of lakes, rivers, wetlands, or terrestrial bodies of water.
1. understand the hydrological cycle: study the movement and distribution patterns of water on earth, including evaporation, precipitation, runoff, groundwater flow and other processes.
2. water resources management: to assess the quantity, quality and availability of water resources, and to provide a basis for the rational development, utilization and protection of water resources.
3. Disaster early warning: monitor signs of natural disasters such as floods and droughts, and issue timely warnings to reduce disaster losses.

3. Industry: water quality monitoring and total discharge control for factory wastewater treatment.
4. Environment: automatic monitoring of ecological environment and agricultural environment.
5. urban planning: urban drainage system, flood control and drainage, etc.
1. provide a basis for water resources regulation: timely access to hydrological data, water resources management and development to provide a scientific basis. 2. protect the water environment: timely access to water resources management and development.
2. protect the water environment: timely grasp of the water body and its environment, take appropriate measures to protect water quality standards, reduce water pollution.
3. improve the efficiency of water resources development and utilization: provide support for water resources development and utilization according to rainfall and lake changes.
4. Predicting water level and disaster prevention and mitigation: predicting changes in flood surface, preventing floods and providing decision support for disaster prevention and mitigation.
- Measure and record the water level changes of rivers, lakes, reservoirs and other waters in real time or on a regular basis to provide a basis for decision-making on reservoir scheduling, flood prevention and early warning, as well as river ecological restoration.
- Through the tipping bucket rain gauge and other equipment, rainfall is accurately measured to provide support for flood control and drainage, water resource management and emergency response.
- Using radar flow meter, ADCP speed measurement and other equipment, real-time monitoring of the flow velocity and flow rate of the water body, to understand the flow of the waters and the distribution of water resources.
- Regularly collect water samples for water quality analysis, measure indicators such as dissolved oxygen, turbidity, pH and chemical composition, assess the health of water bodies, monitor water pollution, and provide scientific basis for water supply and water environment protection.
- Observations include meteorological elements such as precipitation, evaporation, temperature, humidity, barometric pressure and wind, which are essential for weather prediction and climate change research.
- The data collected provides basic information for scientific research in many fields such as hydrology, climatology and ecology.

2. accuracy and comprehensiveness: using high-precision instrumentation to provide accurate and reliable data. At the same time, it can monitor multiple hydrological elements and comprehensively analyze hydrological change trends.
3. Wide range of applications: not only for the monitoring of natural water bodies, but also can be applied to the monitoring of artificial water bodies such as urban drainage systems and water treatment plants.
1. High construction and operation and maintenance costs: it is necessary to purchase and deploy a large number of monitoring equipment and establish corresponding data transmission and storage facilities, which costs a lot of money and manpower.
2. Data standardization and sharing difficulties: different regions and departments use inconsistent monitoring equipment and data formats, leading to difficulties in data integration and analysis.
- Collect hydrological data through various sensors (e.g. rain gauge, water level meter, flow meter, etc.).
- The monitoring equipment usually has a built-in storage function for temporarily storing the collected data.
- Wired transmission: data are transmitted to the data processing center through a wired network (e.g. Ethernet).
- Wireless transmission: data transmission using wireless technologies such as radio waves, satellite communications, mobile networks (e.g. 4G/5G, NB-IoT, GPRS, CDMA, Beidou satellite communications).
- The data processing center receives data from each monitoring station.
- Real-time analysis: Use specialized software to process and analyze the data in real time, generating charts, reports, etc.
- Post-analysis: Conduct more in-depth analysis of the stored data for long-term trend research, model calibration, etc.
- Internal sharing: Share data within relevant departments or organizations.
- External release: Releasing monitoring data and warning information to the public through websites, mobile applications and other platforms.
Through these steps, the hydrological monitoring system can realize the rapid collection, transmission, analysis and application of hydrological data, providing support for water resources management, disaster warning and scientific research.
Summarize:
Hydrological monitoring is a scientific activity of continuous observation and measurement of the dynamic changes of natural water bodies through a series of technical means and equipment. Its main purpose is to understand the hydrological cycle, manage water resources, warn of disasters, protect the environment and support engineering design. The monitoring content includes water level, flow, flow rate, water quality, rainfall, evaporation and so on. Monitoring methods include qualitative monitoring (e.g. video filming) and quantitative monitoring (e.g. flow meter method, radar wave flow measurement method). The monitoring system consists of front-end equipment (e.g., water level meter, rain gauge, flow meter), data transmission system (e.g., 4G/5G, satellite communication) and back-end data processing platform to realize real-time data collection, transmission and analysis.
The main functions of the hydrological monitoring station include real-time data collection, disaster early warning, water resource management, water quality protection and environmental research. The advantages are high real-time, high accuracy and wide application, but the construction and operation and maintenance costs are high, and there are challenges in data standardization and sharing. Through these systems, strong support can be provided for water resources management, disaster prevention and scientific research.
