Development of a “FerryBox” device, which is an operational device that allows continuous measurement of physical, chemical, and biological parameters, without the need for supervision, within the scope of FigheiraFish's aquaculture operations. The installed sensors offer the opportunity to measure physical (salinity, temperature, turbidity), chemical (nutrients, pH, CO2, etc.), and biological (chlorophyll, phytoplankton composition, dominant/harmful species) parameters. The data obtained is transmitted in real time, using different types of data connections, enabling data processing at the system's remote control and management center.
