Water intelligence
Continuous water-quality intelligence across natural and managed environments
Monitor critical water parameters in real time, detect changes before they become incidents and centralise information from rivers, reservoirs, ports, aquaculture facilities and water infrastructures in iris360.
Detect abnormal changes earlier
Create alerts around the parameters that matter to each environment.
Protect ecosystems and operations
Support faster response with continuous information.
Centralise multiparameter data
Compare locations, trends and incidents in one platform.
Data to assess water quality and act in time
Monitoring affects agriculture, livestock, industry, services and cities
Water monitoring affects numerous sectors: agriculture, livestock, industry, services, cities… We can monitor drinking water, detect pollution leaks into rivers, ports and coasts in real time, monitor pressure variations along pipelines, and check water quality in fish farms, recreational water areas and aquariums.

Water Resource Protection
Continuous physical & chemical telemetry across natural basins and distribution networks.
Physical layer
Libelium One Water
A modular monitoring node for continuous visibility into water quality and level. Libelium One Water connects specialised probes to the cloud, helping operators identify changes and manage water resources with reliable field data.
PLUG & PLAY
Automatic Sensor Detection
Connect a compatible sensor and the node automatically identifies it and downloads the required configuration—no programming or manual driver installation needed.
4 SENSOR PORTS
Flexible Sensor Configuration
Four interchangeable ports can accommodate any compatible Libelium One probe, making it possible to combine multiple water parameters in a single monitoring point.
CELLULAR + CLOUD
Connected from the Field
Integrated cellular connectivity and a global SIM send measurements directly to the Libelium platform, with no need to install a local gateway.
IP66 / IP67 · SOLAR READY
Designed for Remote Deployments
A weather-resistant enclosure, ultra-low-power operation, rechargeable battery and optional solar panel support monitoring at reservoirs, rivers and other remote locations.
Libelium One
SOIL CONDITIONS
Understand the Root Zone
Monitor soil water content, temperature, electrical conductivity, water potential and oxygen to understand the conditions affecting root development.
WEATHER MONITORING
Field-Level Weather Data
Compatible weather stations measure parameters such as rainfall, wind, air temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure and solar radiation directly at crop level.
ORGANIC LOAD
Detect Organic Contamination
Optical probes monitor indicators including COD, BOD, TOC and SAC254, providing visibility into changes in organic matter and water quality.
RADAR LEVEL
Non-Contact Level Measurement
Radar technology measures water level without direct contact with the medium, reducing exposure of the sensing element to water and environmental conditions.
SOFTWARE LAYER
iris360 — intelligence across the water network
iris360 brings network measurements and operating events into one view, from the state of each metered district to suspected leaks and water quality at the far ends of the system.

Why Libelium technology
Libelium One: IoT technology for water monitoring
Libelium One is designed to detect the most relevant water quality parameters such as dissolved oxygen, oxidation-reduction potential, pH, conductivity and temperature — feeding a control system that adjusts monitoring schedules automatically.
→
Real-time data:
Continuous readings feed directly into iris360 for immediate visibility.
→
Multiparameter probes:
One device covers the parameters that matter most to each environment..
→
Low maintenance:
Designed for long, unattended deployments in natural and managed water bodies.
Why Libelium
Multiparameter monitoring, tailored to each environment
Physical-chemical, nutrient, and environmental parameters continuously captured by Libelium sensing solutions.
USE CASES
Water monitoring across different environments
Rivers and reservoirs
Surface Water
Continuous monitoring of rivers and reservoirs using Libelium One and multiparameter probes. Recommended parameters: pH, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, temperature, conductivity. Typical alert: Sudden drop in dissolved oxygen. Operational decision: Dispatch a field team to inspect the affected stretch.
Aquaculture
Fish Farms and Aquaculture Facilities
Monitor the parameters that are critical to animal welfare and yield in aquaculture environments. Recommended parameters: Dissolved oxygen, pH, salinity, temperature. Typical alert: Oxygen levels approaching a critical threshold. Operational decision: Activate aeration or adjust stocking density.
Distribution Infrastructure
Pipelines and distribution networks
Monitor pressure variations and water quality along distribution infrastructure. Recommended parameters: Water level, pressure, conductivity, turbidity. Typical alert: Unexpected pressure drop suggesting a leak. Operational decision: Trigger a leak-detection inspection.
Industrial & Coastal Monitoring
Ports, coastal and industrial discharge points
Track discharge quality and coastal conditions near industrial and port operations. Recommended parameters: COD/BOD/TOC, suspended solids, salinity, ORP. Typical alert: Discharge parameters exceeding a permitted limit. Operational decision: Notify compliance team and log the incident.
Recreational Water
Bathing areas and recreational waters
Provides information to support public-health decisions. Recommended parameters: turbidity, temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen. Example alert: deviation from the thresholds defined for water-quality monitoring. Possible action: consider a temporary public advisory.
