Challenge Description |
||||||||
What is not possible / not adequately addressed at present? |
||||||||
Regulatory requirement to ensure maintain fish habitat. Requires baseline mapping and modelling to determine instream flow needs and the acceptable amount of water withdrawal.
|
||||||||
What effect does this challenge have on operations? |
||||||||
Need to manage environmental and social risks related to development. Reduce development impact on aquatic habitats. |
||||||||
Thematic information requirements: |
Distribution of habitat and biodiversity Water quantity |
|||||||
What do you currently do to address this challenge? How is this challenge conventionally addressed? |
||||||||
Stream and river discharge monitoring. Modelling of fish habitat and instream flow needs based on available data. |
||||||||
What kind of solutions do you envisage could address this challenge? |
||||||||
Extensive hydrometric monitoring and modelling. |
||||||||
What is your view on the capability of technology to meet this need? Are you currently using EO tech? If not, why not? |
||||||||
Spatial information on river morphology from EO to support modelling. |
