b'INTERNATIONAL WATERSPisces Buoys The Pisces buoys were assembled by YSIs Integrated Systems and Services in the U.S., and delivered to Green Banyan in two phases. The first set of four Pisces buoys were delivered and installed in 2016, while the second set of four buoys were delivered and commissioned recently. The eight buoys are serviced monthly, where the team travels to each site to check all systems, calibrate the sensors, and provide general maintenance and cleaning. Government agencies and universities use thedata in active monitoring, numerical and predictive model development, and public awareness programs.Water quality data are transmitted to a government server and Green Banyan. An alarm system provides officials with real-time warnings if a parameter (e.g., dissolved oxygen) exceeds the government-recommended threshold. Notifications are then transmitted to the local community for appropriate response.
