REKSAR LAB

Catchment Lab

Surface Water Systems

Understanding rainfall, rivers and surface-water risk — starting with observation.

Catchment laboratory

Guiding question

How is water moving through the catchment, how is the system changing, and what risks may result?

Observation first. Models follow evidence.

Measure first. Do not add model complexity the data cannot support.

Observation Foundation

  • Rainfall
  • River level
  • Sensors

Ciliwung–Cisadane

A long-term study from upstream to downstream. The monitoring layout shown is a planned design, not what is already in the field.

Ciliwung–Cisadane Research Dashboard
RESEARCH PROTOTYPE / NON-OPERATIONAL
Ciliwung–Cisadane catchment research map

Static schematic. No live data. Not connected to operational systems.

Monitoring infrastructure shown represents an intended research design and does not imply that the infrastructure is already installed. Planned sensors are not installed infrastructure.

Research prototype — not an authoritative operational monitoring or warning service. Operational warnings remain with competent government authorities.
