Citclops: Data Interpretation and Knowledge-based Systems Integration

摘要

Measuring the optical properties of water bodies (as indicators of, e.g., sewage impact, dissolved organic matter, sediment load or gross biological activity) is a way to assess their environmental status. The Citclops European project, in 2012-2015, developed systems to retrieve and use data on natural-water colour, transparency and fluorescence, using low-cost sensors combined with contextual information, taking into account existing experiences. This paper describes the general interpretation of data and delivery of information as carried out via the development of a decision support system named 'Citclops Data Explorer' and available from the main portal of the project.
