The collaboration between Iknaia, University of Hertfordshire (UH) and OSIL (Ocean Scientific International Limited) will provide a low cost, highly accurate, real-time digital overview of marine water quality. This innovation will significantly improve the way in which we currently monitor our oceans. It will replace manual sampling and enable more locations to be monitored, not just here in the UK, but the rest of the world. Enhanced measurement of water quality will help us to protect our marine and bathing environments and support the identification and control of pollution sources. Mobile computing and remote sensing have been identified by the Royal Academy of Engineering as two of the upcoming IT waves that will positively disrupt the operational models of all sectors.The partners will deliver a smart monitoring buoy capable of operating in a marine environment, measuring and transmitting a range of datasets that allow water quality to be monitored 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. This will include the assessment of coliforms, which are direct indicators of environmental pollution. The data will be evaluated holistically using AI models and then displayed in different formats on a visually coherent dashboard. The dashboard can be used to support both scientific evaluation and inform the public. Data will be held in an open source format for further analysis. By integrating these technologies, this project will primarily look to reduce the cost of monitoring and evaluating coliforms which will therefore enable more buoys to be deployed in more areas longer term.Iknaia will lead the project and are experts in small sensor technology and building networks using Bluetooth, WiFi and LoRaWAN. They supply Air Quality Networks and other solutions using low cost sensors, providing continuous and real-time monitoring, whilst decreasing costs, improving efficiency and increasing productivity. They will deliver the interface for the data received from the smart buoy, deploy the AI models and create the visualisation dashboard. OSIL are leading global experts in the design & manufacture of integrated systems for environmental monitoring in all marine environments, from shallow coastal waters to full ocean depth and will create the buoy and provide the sensors and the data feed. The University of Hertfordshire Communications and Intelligent Systems (CIS) Research Group has extensive experience in intelligent ICT systems, self-adaptive architectures, Artificial Intelligence and machine learning on the edge technologies, and will develop the AI model architectures and algorithms.

Iknaia，赫特福德大学（UH）和OSIL（海洋科学国际有限公司）之间的合作将提供低成本，高精度，实时的海洋水质数字概览。这一创新将大大改善我们目前监测海洋的方式。它将取代人工采样，并使更多的地点被监测，不仅在英国，但世界其他地区。加强量度水质有助我们保护海洋和泳滩环境，并有助识别和控制污染源。移动的计算和遥感被皇家工程院认定为即将到来的IT浪潮中的两个，它们将积极颠覆所有行业的运营模式。合作伙伴将提供一个能够在海洋环境中运行的智能监测浮标，测量和传输一系列数据集，使水质能够一年365天，一天24小时进行监测。这将包括对大肠菌群的评估，大肠菌群是环境污染的直接指标。这些数据将使用AI模型进行整体评估，然后以不同的格式显示在视觉上连贯的仪表板上。仪表板可用于支持科学评价和向公众提供信息。数据将以开放源代码格式保存，以供进一步分析。通过整合这些技术，该项目将主要着眼于降低监测和评估大肠菌群的成本，从而使更多的浮标能够长期部署在更多的地区。Iknaia将领导该项目，他是小型传感器技术和使用蓝牙，WiFi和LoRaWAN构建网络的专家。他们提供空气质量网络和其他使用低成本传感器的解决方案，提供连续和实时的监测，同时降低成本，提高效率和生产力。他们将为从智能浮标接收的数据提供接口，部署AI模型并创建可视化仪表板。OSIL是全球领先的专家，在设计和制造集成系统，用于所有海洋环境的环境监测，从浅水沿海沃茨到整个海洋深度，并将创建浮标，提供传感器和数据馈送。赫特福德大学通信与智能系统（CIS）研究小组在智能ICT系统、自适应架构、人工智能和机器学习边缘技术方面拥有丰富的经验，并将开发AI模型架构和算法。
