4
StreamPro Advantages
  • Continues RDI's tradition of Innovative Technology for measuring water flow
  • Permits more effective measurement methods in shallower depths
  • Frees users from
    traditional wade &
    wait limitations
5
Applications
6
RDI's BroadBand Profiling Technology
  • Implements for stream gauging the proven & reliable discharge method & algorithms used in Rio Grande ADCPs
  • Measures currents from top to bottom at the same instant -- 5 cm resolution or even finer
  • Unique bottom-tracking capability allows moving across stream continuously
7
Performance
  • Self-contained, light-weight, small-size system simplifies operation and logistics
  • Shallow capability measures 10 x as many streams as earlier ADCPs
  • Maximizes measured area in section
  • Much faster measurement method allows time to collect confirming results
8
Quality
  • Safer: avoids operator in the water
  • Convenient: wireless link permits flexible operation from shore, bridge, & cableway
  • Better quality results: reduced flow disturbance, more measured area
9
Results
  • More Effective:  supercedes methods consuming 30-60 minutes to obtain single discharge measurement
  • More Productive: In the same time, the StreamPro gets 5-10 measurements and statistics for data QA/QC
