# Lake Water Level Monitoring

## LakeWater Level Monitoring for BMC using YuDash LYNX

#### 📍 Location: **Powai Lake, Mumbai**

🏢 End Customer: **Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC)**

🔧 Technology Provider: **YuDash**

The **Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC)** required a reliable, energy-efficient, and field-proven solution to monitor **water levels** in **Powai Lake**, Mumbai. The system needed to provide **accurate, time-stamped data**, integrate with BMC’s **FTP-based infrastructure**, and support **automated alerting and long-term analysis**.

YuDash’s customer — a **reputed system integrator in the weather monitoring domain** — deployed the solution using the **YuDash LYNX IoT Data Logger**. The integrator’s deep domain experience, combined with YuDash’s flexible platform and documentation, enabled a quick and stable rollout to meet BMC’s operational needs.

This deployment highlights how **YuDash enables its system integrator partners** to deliver robust IIoT systems tailored to real-world public infrastructure requirements.
