Abstract :
Automatic equipment is described to fulfill a requirement for optimized operation of reservoirs and other flood-control structures by allowing rapid and unattended reporting of river levels and precipitation amounts from remote points. The emphasis is on design of telemetering networks and system engineering for VHF-radio transmission of the data. A recent development in precipitation telemetering is also described.
