Why use telemetry?

Telemetry provides the opportunity to monitor and control water supply, weather stations, machinery and security of their sites while dramatically reducing travel time and cost.

How does telemetry work?

Basically telemetry is the term used to describe logging of information at one site (outstation) and conveying the information via radio signals to a location remote to the first site (base station).  In turn, signals may be sent to a second remote location to the first in order to activate a device. (e.g. pump, valve, camera etc) 

How are telemetry systems powered?

Photovoltaic solar power is used for remote sites and is the primary option for power on most systems

What can I do with telemetry?

Switching pumps or irrigation systems ON and OFF

Starting generators and monitoring pressure, temperature, voltage etc.

Monitoring dam or tank levels

Real time monitoring of security devices with an instant alarm if break-in occurs

Monitoring and controlling operation of electric fences

Remote reading of instruments such as weather and water flow gauges

Monitoring the status of gates at remote locations

GPS vehicle tracking

Digital camera or CCTV camera

Why would I use telemetry?

To reduce travel costs

To save time and labour

To reduce wear and tear on vehicles

To manage infrastructure that is hard to get to (i.e. wet season inaccessibility)

To create a safety net over sites
