Smart Water Systems Laboratory
General Info
Service/Purpose
The SWSL facility is the base for deployable systems such as the drone mounted and terrestrial Lidar, Multispectral and Hyperspectral, Optical, Thermal and IR cameras and traditional survey equipment to generate baseline and time-sensitive data on land surface processes during snow and snow-free seasons to transform the observation of Canadian waters by detecting changes in water quantity and quality at high resolutions.
Benefits of SWSL data:
• New capabilities for measuring and forecasting water quality and quantity.
• Increased ability to predict the threat of disaster from floods and droughts.
• Information for communities and industries to reduce and manage their flood risk.
• Information for farmers and ranchers to manage drought impacts on food production.
• New opportunities to develop environmental technologies in Canada.
Lab Capabilities
• Data Collection (UAV/Sensors)
• Data Processing and Storage
• 3d Printing and Scanning
