Wet Tropics Coast

• Sample near end of system

• Barron River at Myola

• North Johnstone River at Tung Oil

• South Johnstone River at upstream Mill • Tully River at Euramo

• Herbert River at Ingham sample by Terrain

• Monitoring for runoff to reef is generally at long term Gauging Stations

• Some new gauging stations have been installed for this project

• Local site is on the Tully River upstream of the coastal agricultural area

• Tully River at Tully Gorge Gauging Station in Queensland Parks and Wildlife Colours

• Gauging Stations used as discharge data is available at these sites

• Gauging stations have telemetry

• Old – PSTN and Next G polled from Brisbane

• New – Next G and Satellite IP equipped sites FTP data whenever there is a change in near real time

• Only local site next G IP is on South Johnstone River

• Equipment used is commercial off the shelf

• Statewide support by Hydrographic Support in Brisbane

• They provide the equipment and repair/ maintain/update equipment

• Also adapt equipment to specific needs • All gauging stations to be updated to Campbell CR1000 with Next G or Satellite IP over the next five years

Data Management

• Time series data stored on HYDSTRA – now owned by Kisters AG

• Results from Water Sample analysis currently stored on HYDSTRA as well as other departmental data bases

• Stores both unvalidated near real time telemetry data and validated data

• Stations polled by SODA - a Kisters product • IP sites FTP to HYDSTRA and HYdsupp
