Overview

Water level and water quality data can be difficult and costly to retrieve and analyze, especially when it requires a trip to the field to manually collect readings from the instrument. Additionally, the task of sorting, manipulating, and formatting the data once its collected can be extremely time-consuming. With this method, it’s likely that critical information isn’t gathered and analyzed until well after it would have been most useful. This workshop will be a live demonstration of how to utilize a data services platform in order to gain access to real-time data. Participants will learn ways to simplify the task of filtering data for important results, including rapidly narrowing data by location, parameter, user tags, or project. Participants will also learn how to use customizable alarm notifications to limit potential problems and minimize damages when issues do arise.

 Learning Objectives

  • Analyze and access your data in a timely manner to limit potential problems, and minimize damages when issues do arise.
  • Identify ways to spend less time manipulating data into your desired format.
  • Keep track of all your projects and instruments in a central location.
