The new HOBO RX3000 units, strategically located across the island, provide accurate, real-time weather data that helps optimize water resource management and enhance the response to sudden episodes of heavy rainfall.
Darrera has carried out the supply, installation, and commissioning of 7 HOBO RX3000 stations, which are fully integrated into the Lanzarote Island Water Council’s meteorological network. The stations operate entirely autonomously using solar power and are equipped with precision meteorological sensors, including a Class A rain gauge, cup anemometer, wind vane, thermo-hygrometer housed in a radiation shield, and a UV radiation sensor.
The recorded data is transmitted in real time to the cloud via 4G connectivity, enabling remote monitoring and management from the Council’s control center. This immediate access to information facilitates agile, data-driven decision-making in water management and ensures a prompt response to sudden, intense rainfall events that are typical on the island during autumn and winter.
With the addition of these new stations, the Council consolidates its meteorological observation network and takes a further step toward more efficient and sustainable water management. Darrera, for its part, strengthens its commitment to implementing advanced meteorological solutions tailored to the needs of companies providing essential services to citizens.
