A big part of protecting our planet is protecting A big part of protecting our planet is protecting our water. 🧘🌊

But our resources are limited – and on top of that, some water bodies are hard to access.

Through a combination of drones, probes, and linked software, DROWAQ system is opening new opportunities for scientific research and environmental monitoring. As part of a bigger RONONETCBC project, it is fuelling a movement where scientists across the EU work together to build solutions for a greener, cleaner future.
