Live 'SCADA'
Style Monitoring from New Zealand
DEDICATEDengines are able to
demonstrate live "SCADA" style monitoring over the Internet, of a water
treatment site at Moa Point, New Zealand, owned and operated by, Anglian
Water.
The control and automation system on the site is interrogated by
a DEDICATEDengines eMIS computer, which streams the information up to a website
on the Internet. The website is updated with live information at a rate of once
every 30 minutes.
Anglian Water operates several water treatment
facilities worldwide and the New Zealand site follows on the heels of Anglian
Water's Cambridge Water Treatment site, which was the first step in Anglian
Water's plans to provide a worldwide live monitoring service to their clients.
Anglian Water won the contract to design, build and operate the Moa Point site,
which went operational in October 1998.
By using Internet technology,
Anglian Water also intend to make the information in the ARTS2000 system
available to a more of their customers. The information is displayed in the
form of active web pages, which can be made freely available to any customer
with Internet access and a web browser, such as Microsoft's Internet Explorer.
