UK-based independent marine data management, publishing and GIS specialist OceanWise announced that, in collaboration with Valeport, UK, and Wood & Douglas, UK, it had been awarded a prestigious contract to deliver a Tidal Monitoring, Telemetry and Display System (TMTDS) to the Port of London Authority, UK. The TMTDS includes eight tidal monitoring stations in the Thames Estuary, plus a data feed from stations further upriver operated by the UK Environment Agency. Tidal monitoring equipment for the project will be supplied by Valeport and will include Valeport's new radar sensor, the VRS-20. Radio and GSM telemetry equipment will be supplied by Wood & Douglas and Scannex, UK, respectively. System design, integration and all control, database and publishing hardware and software will be provided by OceanWise. The system replaces the present system which has been in operation since the early 1990s.
