System Control and Data Aquistion
Peak Environmental Monitoring can provide specialist System
Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) and/or Data Acquisition
(DAQ) to extend the functionality of existing telemetry
hardware.
Projects include but not limited to

SCADA project example - Shannon Creek Dam ( 2010)
undertaken by Dr Robyn Hannah consultant for Peak Environmental Monitoring
see also Shannon Creek Dam - Coffs Harbour Council
The 30,000 megalitre Shannon Creek Dam is located west of Coutts Crossing and 18 kilometres south of Grafton on the NSW north coast. It is an off-river storage reservoir. This means that instead of relying on rain to fall in the small 37km catchment area of the Shannon dam for its water supply, water is gravity fed by pipes directly from the Nymboida river. The Nymboida river sources its water from 1700 square km of Dorrigo catchment, the highest rainfall area in NSW.

SCADA Technical details
650 physical points
300 calculated or derived points. Including measurements of rainfall, stream height and flow, reservoir level, pump and inlet flow, motor speeds, power, energy usage, stop/start functions, valve operation and flow, reservoir temperature profile.
One of the major computations was a reservoir balance which ensured that all natural flow into the reservoir was discharged to keep downstream environment unchanged. This was based on base level monitoring of the site and an algorithm determined from it.
One main PLC but it was distributed over 50 locations, connected by cable and optical fibre.
Outlying PLC’s measured environmental parameters and telemetered these back to the control centre using Trio radio systems.
