Description
Summary:The application of technologies for physical-chemical characterization in rivers is necessary to standardize the methodologies, obtain accurate results and assess the environmental status of surface waters. Currently, in Colombia, the taking of samples of water quality parameters in rivers, is regularly done by field technicians, to then perform the analysis in the laboratories, which needs logistics organization that requires considerable financial resources and time. The Magdalena River, being one of the most important bodies of water in the country due to the high commercial maritime traffic, source of purification and discharge of treated water, begins to be necessary to apply technologies for physical -chemical characterization and obtain precise results to evaluate the environmental status of surface waters in real-time. Aiming to build a proposal for an architecture of a Water Quality Telemetry System for the Magdalena River, a literature review was conducted. The study identified the most important variables to monitor water quality parameters in rivers and related them to the technologies used for such purposes based on applied cases.
