Data acquisition, analysis, and management of accurate water resources field data to supplement existing information often is an essential component of successful project development. RTi designs, installs, and maintains a variety of data acquisition and monitoring networks to collect and analyze hydrologic and water quality data. A leader in adapting electronic instrumentation and data analysis to hydrometeorological, surface and ground water monitoring, RTi professionals are proficient with both conventional and state-of-the-art, real-time continuous monitoring networks. RTi has expertise in communication technologies, and uses telephone, radio, and satellite telemetry to transmit hydrometeorological data to control centers in real time. We operate many networks in areas with extreme climatic conditions, including high-altitude networks in the Rocky Mountains and Sierra Nevada Mountains in the western United States, as well as cold region networks in Alaska, and semi-tropical networks in northern Brazil.

RTi' real-time continuous data monitoring systems range from stream and rain gages to complete weather stations, capable of real-time detection and reporting for a wide variety of parameters, including precipitation, wind, solar radiation, soil moisture, streamflow and reservoir levels. Working closely with utilities, municipalities, mining and petroleum companies, and agricultural clients, we customize our water monitoring networks to meet each client's objectives by building versatility into each monitoring program. RTi's hydrometeorological data networks may be designed to address specific project needs, such as flood forecasting, water rights, or regional monitoring.
