The data collected will be transmitted by cellular network every 30 minutes, which will enable a more agile and accurate actuation regarding the recovery actions of the region.

Find out where the stations are located:

● Three stations in the Gualaxo do Norte River, in the region of Mariana (MG)
● Six stations along the Doce River
