End-to-end IoT water quality solutions


Biotsphere delivers robust water quality measurement through novel use of IoT, Cloud and mobile technologies — from sensor to dashboard.

  • IoT sensor platforms capture a wide range of water quality indicators and transmit data using open standards (MQTT, HTTPS) to cloud platforms or on-premise systems.
  • Cloud platforms including AWS, Azure and Google are all supported — enabling flexible storage, analytics, alerting and machine learning capabilities tailored to specific needs.
  • Communications infrastructure supports WiFi, 3G/4G and LoRaWAN, adapting to the availability and bandwidth requirements of each deployment location.

Measuring what matters in water health


Identifying threats to water quality requires a broad suite of measurements, backed by continuous data collection and robust analytics.

  • Standard sensor suite covers pH, turbidity, total dissolved solids (TDS), temperature, dissolved oxygen, flow rate, river depth and atmospheric conditions.
  • The platform supports flexible sensor configurations — with spectroscopic and acoustic analysis in active development for enhanced pollution detection.
  • Sensor signals are filtered, amplified and stored locally before transmission — ensuring data integrity even in low-connectivity environments.
