Abstract :
Following the implementation rules of EU INSPIRE Directive, we designed and developed a system for pollution detection for Somes River. We address the challenge of providing public information about water quality parameters measured by wireless sensor networks placed on the river bed and river shore. The system provides pollution alerts based on the analysis made on the monitored water parameters. Furthermore, it is able to estimate the concentration of the pollutant in a specific area and time-frame, based on a pollutant propagation model.
