To ensure that our rivers and streams fulfil their ecological function and at the same time we humans can use the water and are sufficiently protected from floods, it is necessary to carry out regulatory hydraulic engineering measures.

Regularly measured discharge data in our rivers are crucial for water management. The quality of these measurement data directly impacts the design of our flood protection structures, the delineation of hazard zones, and more. Therefore, the accuracy of this data is of paramount importance.
