Department of Water Resources Conducts Maintenance on Monitoring Systems in Northern Thailand
Officials have inspected and maintained 12 telemetry and CCTV stations across four provinces to ensure water resource monitoring accuracy.
The Department of Water Resources (DWR) recently announced that its regional office, DWR Region 9, has completed a series of maintenance operations on water monitoring infrastructure. According to an official report published on September 11, 2026, technical teams inspected and serviced 12 telemetry and CCTV stations located across Phitsanulok, Phichit, Uttaradit, and Sukhothai provinces.
These systems are critical for the real-time collection of hydrological data and visual monitoring of water levels in the region. For residents and travelers, the maintenance of these stations is significant as they provide the foundational data used by authorities to manage water resources and issue flood warnings during the monsoon season. Reliable telemetry ensures that local communities receive timely information regarding river conditions.
While the department has confirmed the completion of these maintenance tasks, the specific operational status of each individual station following the service remains to be confirmed. Travelers planning to visit these provinces, particularly during periods of heavy rainfall, are encouraged to monitor official DWR updates for the most current information on water conditions. The department continues to oversee these systems to maintain the integrity of the regional water management network.
