Canary Systems was recently featured in the recent copy of  ‘International Water Power and Dam Construction Magazine’. Launched in 1949, International Water Power & Dam Construction has established itself as the leading monthly international publication serving the needs of those involved in dam construction and the hydroelectricity industries. Independently published it offers a highly respected, unrivalled, in-depth, quality editorial to its readers.

Canary Systems was tasked with supplying
automated data acquisition equipment, software
and services to improve and upgrade the dam
safety instrumentation system (DSIS) at the
Rocky Mountain plant. This project required
the deployment of a comprehensive range of
automated data acquisition equipment, software,
and services to ensure the safety and optimal
performance of the hydroelectric facility.

Canary Systems constructed a project database
and aggregated historical data from manually
collected measurements including weirs, settlement
monuments, and standpipes, as well as automated
piezometer data. This established a dynamic
foundation for the project and ensured that there
was accurate and reliable data to work with.

The use of automated piezometer data is
particularly noteworthy, as it allows for continuous
monitoring of water pressure and levels in the
ground, providing real-time data on subsurface
conditions. Such information is crucial for assessing
potential risks and identifying any changes in
subsurface conditions that may impact the project.
