The division specializes in prototype data collection and analysis, unlocking the secrets of dynamic coastal environments with precision and expertise. Sophisticated equipments are used to collect a wealth of coastal parameters. From the rhythmic dance of waves to the ebb and flow of tides, every nuance of coastal dynamics is captured. Further, River Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCPs) quantify river discharge, providing invaluable insights into the interaction between freshwater inflows and coastal environments. Continuous and comprehensive beach surveys carried out by this division is providing the required understanding, guiding the design and implementation of effective protection works to safeguard our coastal communities and ecosystems. In this division, data illuminates the path forward, where every measurement tells a story of resilience and adaptation along our dynamic coastlines. At Coastal Data Centre, the power of data transforms the understanding of coastal environments.
Broad Areas of Expertise
Coastal Data Centre extends its support and services to various coastal divisions of CWPRS for collecting the field data of Indian Coast. The coastal parameters being collected are
- Wave height, direction & period
- Tidal Currents and it’s profiling
- Tidal level
- Bathymetry
- Conductivity, Temperature profile with Depth
- Depth & Positioning
- Suspended sediment size
- River discharge
- Meteorological Data
- Beach Survey
Preventive Maintenance, Pre & Post tour maintenance is being carried out for the equipment. Additionally, mooring for the installation of field data collection equipment is prepared by the division.
Significant Contributions
- Thermal mapping in the vicinity of Tarapur Atomic Power Station (TAPS) has been carried out as baseline information as well as input for the studies regarding assessment of the probable impact on the existing cooling water system of TAPS due to the proposed development of Port at Vadhvan.
- Carried out 35 years of meteorological data analysis for the development of proposed Nuclear Power Projects at Bargi, Kovvada, MithiVirdi, Kudankulam, Kumariya, Bhimpur and Banswara.
- Carried out coastal data collection on various parameters viz. waves, tides, currents, suspended sediment concentration, characteristics of bed material etc. at various locations in Gulf of Khambhat, east coast and west coast of India.
Coastal Field Instrumentation division is presently equipped with State of Art equipment as described:
- Directional Waverider Buoys- To measure wave characteristics using wave motion sensor based on a stabilized platform, accelerometers, and magnetic compass. Measures wave height for wave periods of 1.6 to 30s, accuracy 0.5% of the measured value, wave direction and water temperature. The collected wave data and GPS information are transmitted to a land based receiving station over a HF link and also on GSM network.
- Marine Acoustic Doppler Profilers- ADCPs with 4 and 5 beam solutions to measure Water velocity and direction across a water column. Wave parameters can also be measured using the 5th beam. Velocity Range is ±5 meter/second with an accuracy of ±0.5% of the measured value. Profiling range is 50 meters.
- River Acoustic Doppler Profilers- For river discharges near coastal regions.
- Bathymetric Survey System- For collection of nearshore bathymetry data.
- Automatic Weather Station- For meteorological parameters collection like wind speed & Direction, relative humidity, rainfall etc.
- Impeller Current Meters- For point water velocity up to ±5 meter/second with direction.
- Pressure Tide Gauges- To measure Water level upto 100 meters and has an internal data logger to store upto 90 days data.
- LISST- For suspended sediments data in sea and estuary.
- Water Sampler and Grab sampler-For suspended and bed sediment characterstics.
- Total station: For beach Survey and profiling.
- CTD Meter- For Salinity temperature and depth measurement.
- Acoustic Release with command unit- Used as ancillary equipment for safe retrieval of deployed instruments.
