About

WaterSpy is a company, located at Nicosia 1015, Cyprus. Visit their website www.waterspy.eu, Facebook, Twitter, or LinkedIn profile for more detailed information.

The WaterSpy project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 731778. The project is an initiative of the Photonics Public Private Partnership (www.photonics21.org). The WaterSpy project consortium includes 9 partners from 7 different European countries, coordinated by CyRIC, Cyprus Research and Innovation Center Ltd. The project was launched in November 2016 and will run for three years, to allow enough time for the development and real-world validation of the technology.Quick and reliable water quality monitoring data is critical for detecting environmental pollutionand reacting in the best possible wayto avoid human health hazards. However, it's not easy to gather such data, at least not for all contaminants. Currently, water utilities rely heavily on frequent sampling and laboratory analysis in order to acquire this information. This method is time-consuming, expensive, and usually does not provide the necessary immediate input on notifying authorities in order to proceed to necessary measures, once hazardous contaminants are detected.For the situation to be improved, compact, portable and high-performance devices for pervasive water quality monitoring are required. Such devices should expand current limitations in detecting contaminants, transcending today's paradigms, and bridging different technologies available, allowing on-line monitoring of possible contaminants.The WaterSpy project addresses this challenge by developing water quality analysis photonics technology suitable for inline, field measurements. WaterSpy technology will be integrated, for validation purposes, to a commercially successful water quality monitoring platform, in the form of a portable device add-on. WaterSpy will be used in the field for the analysis of critical points of water distribution networks.
