The Wuzhen water quality automatic monitoring station in Tongxiang, a county-level city of Jiaxing in East China's Zhejiang province, has recently put its intelligent operation and maintenance robot into service.

Jiaxing, a riverside city in the south of the Yangtze River, boasts intricate water routes comprising 15,300 rivers with a cumulative length exceeding 12,300 kilometers.

In recent years, Jiaxing has prioritized water ecological restoration efforts, striving to create a picturesque urban environment characterized by pristine water, breathtaking landscapes, and contented inhabitants. Notably, the water quality compliance rate across seven drinking water sources has stayed at 100 percent.

In a bid to further safeguard the ecological water system landscape, Jiaxing has implemented an intelligent supervision system such as an intelligent operation and maintenance robot.

Leveraging multi-degree-of-freedom control, AI image recognition, and other cutting-edge technologies, the robot has taken over more than 30 operation and maintenance tasks, such as round-the-clock patrols, water quality monitoring, real-time emergency alerts, and initial emergency analysis. This transition has significantly minimized manual operation errors.

Starting with intelligent water stations, Jiaxing plans to propel the digital transformation of environmental monitoring in order to get a state-of-the-art automatic environmental monitoring system in place faster.
