Bringing real-time data to remote corners of the world. Great to see an Obscape Radar Level Gauge deployed for monitoring water levels in a highly remote area near Santa Marta, Colombia. Managing vital water resources in isolated regions presents massive operational hurdles. Traditional cellular networks often fall short, and sending teams out for manual readings is both costly and impractical. With the satellite functionality on our Radar Level Gauge, highly precise, real-time hydrological data directly from the field can be used for decision making. - True global connectivity — integrated satellite telemetry streams data reliably from any location on Earth. - 100% self-sustaining — powered entirely by built-in solar panels and an internal battery; no mains power required. - Zero water contact — mounted above the surface, eliminating biofouling, sediment build-up and debris damage. - Instant data access — feeds straight into the Obscape Data Portal for continuous tracking, reporting and threshold alerts. Thanks for trusting Obscape tin the mission for sustainable water governance and ecosystem protection — and to our Colombian distributor Enviteck for bringing this solution to life. #WaterResourceManagement #EnvironmentalMonitoring #Hydrology #SatelliteTelemetry #RemoteSensing #Sustainability #SantaMarta

How much pressure can a 2 kg data logger handle? A lot more than you'd expect. We put our Obscape PTM (Portable Telemetry Module) to the test in a hydraulic press. The pressure kept increasing...5 tonnes. 10 tonnes. 15 tonnes. ...until it reached an incredible 17 tonnes of crushing force. Why? Because environmental monitoring equipment doesn't have an easy life. It faces rough handling, harsh weather, impacts, and demanding deployments. That's why we engineer our hardware to keep delivering reliable data when conditions are anything but ideal. Watch the video to see how the PTM performs under extreme pressure. Our data logger can handle 17 tonnes of pressure. Can yours? #EnvironmentalMonitoring #Engineering #FieldTesting #BuiltToLast #MarineTechnology #DataLogging #RuggedDesign

We've started a blog — a place to go behind the scenes of real-time environmental monitoring. No sales fluff, just clear writing from the people who design and build the systems. First articles up now: • Understanding Wave Data — what Hm0, Tp and every parameter actually mean • How Ocean Wave Monitoring Works • Pressure vs Radar? — how water level measurement works • Why real-time environmental data matters • Smarter offshore operations with real-time data Have a read: site.obscape.com/obscape-insigh… We'll keep adding to it — what would you like us to explain next? #EnvironmentalMonitoring #OceanData #WaveData #CoastalEngineering #OceanTech

Ever wondered what goes into an Obscape system long before it reaches the field? Meet Mark, our Production Engineer — and welcome to his world. We build our electronics in-house, and Mark walks you through the steps. Every Obscape circuit board is made under our own roof, inspected and tested before going into a device. That's a deliberate choice. When the people who design the hardware are the same ones building it, the quality stays high and the feedback loop stays tight — and that's what ends up reporting data you can trust. #BehindTheScenes #Engineering #ElectronicsManufacturing #OceanTech #EnvironmentalMonitoring #MeetTheTeam

Where do ocean eddies take the heat — and the carbon? Obscape Wave Modules are heading to sea as drifting buoys, deployed by the UCT and CSIR in support of WHIRLS — a European Research Council project unravelling how fine-scale ocean "whirls" shape our climate, marine chemistry and biodiversity. Built for the open ocean: * Satellite (Iridium) communication for data from anywhere * Solar-powered for long, unattended drifts * Real-time data to the Obscape Data Portal It's the kind of frontier ocean science our gear is built for — rugged enough to drift the Southern Ocean, simple enough to just keep reporting. Proud to support the CSIR and the WHIRLS team at the University of Cape Town.

A new Obscape wave buoy is now reporting off Wairoa, on New Zealand's Hawke's Bay coast — supporting Hawke's Bay Regional Council's coastal monitoring at Wairoa and Esk. What makes this deployment matter is how the data gets used. As Joao Albuquerque at Hawke's Bay Regional Council explained, the live wave data helps the team understand the wave thresholds that can: • Close a river mouth — which can lead to river flooding in the wrong weather • Drive coastal flooding, when waves overtop the gravel crest and push seawater into the estuary • Check how well their own wave forecasts are performing Live data is essential for our operations crew and for decision-making during extreme events. That's exactly what we build for — reliable data that keeps reporting through the extreme events, when the decisions matter most. #WaveData #CoastalMonitoring #CoastalHazards #EnvironmentalMonitoring #OceanTech #NewZealand #Fieldwork

Built for the elements. Designed to last. Our environmental monitoring systems operate in some of the harshest conditions — which is why we partner with @voltaicsystems to supply the solar panels used across our Obscape product line. Voltaic panels are engineered with durable material stacks, extensively lab-tested, and field-proven - delivering reliable power with minimal degradation. Because when your equipment is remote, durability isn’t optional. It’s essential. #SolarPower #EnvironmentalMonitoring #RuggedTech #RenewableEnergy #Partnerships #votaicsystems

Radar or Pressure — which level gauge is right for your site? Both are reliable methods for monitoring water levels, but the best choice depends on where and how you're deploying.

🌊 Even when the impact never makes landfall, the story is still worth capturing In this time-lapse, our camera recorded a hurricane passing offshore — subtle, fast, but visible in the distance. That’s the strength of continuous, autonomous monitoring: it provides a reliable visual record of the environment, whether it’s daily shoreline dynamics or extreme weather events. Rugged, wireless, and built for long-term deployment, Obscape’s Time-Lapse Camera ensures you don’t miss a moment that matters. 📩[email protected] | 🌐obscape.com #EnvironmentalMonitoring #ClimateChange #HurricaneMonitoring #CoastalManagement #Innovation

Real-Time Data for Smarter Port Operations in Angola Petromar, one of Angola’s leading construction and fabrication companies, has recently deployed an Obscape tide gauge, wave module, and all-in-one weather station at the Ambriz fabrication yard. Founded in 1984, Petromar plays a central role in Angola’s upstream and downstream sectors. The Ambriz yard — one of the largest in the country — is now being adapted into a commercial smart port for the Bengo province, a strategic step for sustainable growth. With Obscape’s real-time monitoring technology, the port gains live insights into tides, waves, wind, and rainfall — enabling safer offshore operations and smarter port management. 📩 [email protected] | 🌐 obscape.com
