Real-time monitoring of flood risk, water levels and weather conditions, providing accurate, next-level sensor data to protect communities and remote assets.
+ Why Choose Q-Watch®?
Q-Watch® is our modular remote surface water monitoring solution, engineered to deliver accurate, real-time data in remote and high-risk environments. From road crossings and river catchments in Australian LGA’s to national parks and remote industrial assets, Q-Watch provides detailed situational awareness where it matters most.
Resilient Remote Monitoring
Q-Watch® is built for Australia’s most isolated environments. Each system is proven in the field to endure the extremes of weather, terrain and access limitations.
Flexible, Scalable Design
Choose from a wide array of sensors – water level, rain gauge, meteorological, soil, and more – all connected to a central data platform via 4G/5G wireless, satellite or radio telemetry.
Industry-wide applications
From local councils and disaster agencies to mining, agriculture and utilities — Q-Watch® supports decision-making across a diverse range of industries.
Situational Awareness That Saves Time
Gain early warning of flood conditions, monitor remote roads, infrastructure and waterways — without deploying people into harm’s way.
Integrated Data Platform
Compatible with Qteq’s dataOnline™ platform or third-party systems, allowing full visualisation, alerts and decision support from any device.
Key Features
1. Sensor Agnostic
Integrates with a wide range of sensors (water level, water quality, rain, flow, soil moisture, weather) – modular to suit each site’s requirements.
2. Multi-Telemetry Options
Supports satellite, cellular 4G/5G and radio telemetry for reliable communication in all environments.
3. Remote Camera Options
Add still or streaming for real-time visual situational confirmation, even in blackout or flooded conditions.
4. Smart Alerts
Real-time alerts for flood thresholds, water rises, and environmental anomalies via SMS, email, private cloud or cloud-native dashboards.
5. Field-Hardened Design
IP-rated housings, solar or mains powered, vandal-resistant enclosures, engineered for floodplain and remote deployment.
