Clear Sight for Clean Water

Protect drinking water at the source.

Précis
  • Problem: Monitor changes in water sources.
  • Solution: Millions of point samples, remotely.
  • Benefit: Advance warning, safer operations.

You turn on your tap, expecting clean, safe water. But what if unseen threats in your watershed were compromising that expectation? In the world of water management, what you can't see can hurt you — and your community.

While many utilities focus on treatment processes, the real battle for water quality begins far upstream. Agricultural runoff, urban development, and climate change are just a few factors silently impacting our drinking water sources. Traditional monitoring methods, relying on sporadic sampling, often miss critical changes until it's too late.

At Satelytics, we believe that protecting drinking water starts with comprehensive, real-time monitoring of entire watersheds. Our cutting-edge geospatial analytics provide a bird's-eye view of your water sources, detecting threats before they become crises.

Our proprietary Constant Vigilance™ algorithms don't just look at your water — they analyze it down to the molecular level:

  1. Biological Threats: We detect phycocyanin and chlorophyll-a, indicators of harmful algal blooms (HABs), in parts-per-billion concentrations.
  2. Chemical Culprits: From phosphorus and nitrogen to total PFAS, we identify and measure potential contaminants.
  3. Physical Changes: Our change detection capabilities spot erosion, illegal construction, and sedimentation that could impact water quality.
Monitor chemical, biological, and physical constituents in source water.

Monitor chemical, biological, and physical constituents in source water.

A major water utility implemented Satelytics' monitoring system across its 50,000-acre watershed. Within the first month, our algorithms detected an unusual spike in nutrient levels in a remote area. The results guided the utility to an unreported sewage leak on a nearby property. Swift action prevented the contamination from reaching the reservoir, potentially saving millions in treatment costs and preserving public trust.

Traditional water quality monitoring is like trying to understand a forest by looking at a few trees. Satelytics provides:

  • Comprehensive Coverage: Monitor vast watersheds efficiently and frequently, yielding millions of point samples.
  • Early Warning System: Detect and address threats before they impact your water supply.
  • Cost-Effective Solutions: Target your resources precisely where they're needed most.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Stay ahead of environmental regulations with detailed, data-driven reporting.


Don't wait for water quality issues to surface at the tap. Contact us today to discover how our advanced geospatial analytics can fortify your drinking water source protection strategy. With Satelytics, you're not just monitoring your watershed—you're safeguarding your community's future, one pixel at a time.
