  Next, water quality monitoring steps S01 to S10 in the construction water area by the water quality monitoring system 10 of FIGS. 1 to 7 will be described with reference to FIGS.

  FIG. 8 is a flowchart for explaining the water quality monitoring step in the construction water area by the water quality monitoring system 10 of FIGS. FIG. 9 is a graph schematically showing a temporal change example of the measured value of turbidity measured by the water quality monitoring system 10 of FIGS. FIG. 10 is a flowchart for explaining the steps for setting the turbidity limit value.

  This will be described with reference to FIG. First, a plurality of water quality monitoring devices 1 to 4 are installed at observation points in the construction water zone K of FIG. 1 and in the vicinity thereof as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 (S01).

  A turbidity limit value is set for the construction water area K and stored in the memory 34 of the information processing device 31 of the ground station T (S02). The limit value of turbidity is set as shown in FIG.

  Next, measurement of turbidity and the like is started at each measurement point by the water quality monitoring devices 1 to 4 (S03), and measurement data obtained at the set time from the water quality measurement sensors 11, 12 and the flow direction anemometer 13 are wirelessly transmitted from the communication unit 15. Wireless transmission is performed to the information processing apparatus 31 of the ground station T via the packet network P (S04).

  The information processing device 31 of the ground station T receives the above measurement data (S05), and the determination unit 35 of the information processing device 31 monitors whether or not the measured value of turbidity exceeds the limit value (S06). Then, for example, when the measured value of turbidity deviates beyond the limit value at time t as shown in FIG. 9, turbidity abnormality occurrence information is issued based on the determination of the determination unit 35 as turbidity is abnormal ( S07).

  The monitor display unit 37 of the information processing apparatus 31 of the ground station T displays, for example, measurement data of turbidity that changes with time as shown in FIG. 9 in real time, and the administrator of the ground station T displays the turbidity. It is easy to check the situation of time change.

  Turbidity abnormality occurrence information is displayed on the monitor display unit 37 of the information processing device 31 of the ground station T, and via the Internet I, PCs 41 to 43 of remote construction-related offices, mobile phones 44 of construction-related personnel, 45 and also to the communication unit W1 of the work boat W (S08). When the work ship W or the person concerned with the construction receives the turbidity abnormality occurrence information (S09), it immediately responds and takes measures (S10). For example, the work ship W can immediately take measures such as stopping the work, changing the work procedure, or changing the work position.

  The turbidity measurement (S03) in FIG. 8 can be set to be performed at a constant time interval or a constant time, but the time interval may be changed according to the time. (19:00) may be measured every 10 minutes, and at night (19:00 to 5:00), measurement may be performed every 60 minutes.

  Next, the setting of the turbidity limit value in step S02 of FIG. 8 will be described with reference to FIG. First, the water quality monitoring device 4 is installed at the reference point M in the water area not affected by the construction shown in FIG. 1 for background measurement (S21). On the other hand, a turbidity management value X is set and stored in the memory 34 of the information processing apparatus 31 in FIG. 7 (S22).

Next, the water quality monitoring device 4 measures the turbidity of the reference point M of the water area not affected by the construction as background turbidity information, and obtains a measured value Y of the turbidity (S23). The measured value Y of the turbidity in the water area not affected by the construction is wirelessly transmitted to the ground station T as in FIG. 8, and the turbidity control value X and the measured turbidity value Y are calculated by the calculation unit 33 of the information processing device 31. Based on this, the limit value Z of turbidity is calculated and set by the following equation (1) (S24). The calculated turbidity limit value Z is stored in the memory 34 of the information processing device 31.
Z = X + Y (1)

  In addition, it is preferable that the management value X is set for every construction water area, for example, it is a fixed value within 2-10 ppm. The limit value Z of turbidity is, for example, 6 ppm + 2 ppm = 8 ppm when the management value X is 2 ppm and the measured turbidity value Y of the reference point of the water area not affected by the construction is 6 ppm.

  Next, normal measurement from step S03 in FIG. 8 is performed (S25). In this case, the turbidity limit value Z may be updated by updating the turbidity measurement value Y measured by the water quality monitoring device 4 as in step S26 of FIG.

  That is, when updating the measured value Y of turbidity (S26), the process returns to step S23 at the set time or time interval, and a new measured value Y of turbidity is obtained at the reference point M in the water area that is not affected by construction. The turbidity limit value Z can be updated by similarly calculating and setting a new turbidity limit value Z based on the newly obtained turbidity measurement value Y. When the turbidity of the water area not affected by construction changes due to the influence of the tide flow and the influence of the vicinity of the river mouth, etc. on the site water area including the construction water area K in Fig. 1 It is preferable to update the measured value Y at a predetermined time or the like and update the turbidity limit value Z. Thereby, it is possible to monitor the water quality of the construction water area corresponding to the change in turbidity caused by other causes rather than the influence of construction.

  Next, the step of periodically confirming the normal operation of the water quality monitoring devices 1 to 4 will be described. The communication unit of the water quality monitoring devices 1 to 4 receives temperature information, humidity information, and voltage information in substantially the same steps as in FIG. 15 is wirelessly transmitted to the ground station T via the wireless packet network P of FIG. 2 and received by the information processing device 31 and compared with each set value. When deviating from each set value, or without deviating When there is a large change in both cases, abnormality occurrence information (deviation occurrence information) relating to temperature information, humidity information, and voltage information is issued. For example, when the design values of the water quality monitoring devices 1 to 4 are a temperature of 60 degrees or less, a humidity of 50% or less, and a power supply voltage of 11.5 to 13.5 V, each set value is set based on these design values. .

  Each of the above-described abnormality occurrence information is displayed on the monitor display unit 37 of the information processing device 31 of the ground station T, and via the Internet I, the PCs 41 to 43 of the remote construction-related offices, the mobile phones 44 of the construction-related persons, 45 and also to the communication unit W1 of the work boat W. Thereby, the manager of the water quality monitoring devices 1 to 4 can take appropriate maintenance and repair measures.

  Furthermore, the information processing device 31 of the ground station T periodically receives the position information of each of the water quality monitoring devices 1 to 4 based on the GPS signal, and the observation point and the reference point installed at each position of the water quality monitoring devices 1 to 4 If it falls outside the allowable value, it is determined that each position has deviated from the predetermined range, and abnormality occurrence information (deviation occurrence information) regarding the position of the water quality monitoring device is issued. This abnormality occurrence information is displayed on the monitor display unit 37 of the information processing device 31 of the ground station T, and is transmitted to the PCs 41 to 43 of the remote construction-related offices and the mobile phones 44 and 45 of the construction personnel via the Internet I. It is also transmitted to the communication unit W1 of the work boat W. Thereby, the manager of the water quality monitoring devices 1 to 4 can take appropriate maintenance and repair measures.

  As described above, according to the water quality monitoring system of the present embodiment, the water quality monitoring devices 1 to 4 to which the water quality measurement sensors 11 and 12 are attached are installed in the construction water area K and in the vicinity of the construction water area K, and turbidity Can be measured continuously in real time day and night. Turbidity measurement data is wirelessly transmitted to the ground station T (management office) and compared with the limit value by the information processing device 31. If the limit value is exceeded, the construction personnel are automatically notified of the occurrence of an abnormality. You can be notified quickly. That is, the turbidity measurement data from the water quality monitoring devices 1 to 4 is automatically sent to the information processing device 31 of the ground station T, and compared with the limit value determined for each construction water area. 31), human error can be avoided since humans do not intervene, and rapid processing becomes possible. In this way, since each process for water quality monitoring is automatically performed by a computer, if turbidity abnormality occurrence information is issued, construction personnel can obtain the abnormality occurrence information at an early stage, and it is possible to obtain accurate information. It becomes possible to take measures against pollution diffusion.

  The above-mentioned turbidity measurement data and turbidity abnormality occurrence information can be transmitted in real time to a plurality of construction-related offices via a wireless packet network such as a cellular phone network or an Internet line. By using it, it is possible to send a plurality of construction-related offices at a time, and it is possible to construct a measurement data transmission network that is highly reliable and that allows a plurality of parties to easily acquire measurement data.

  In underwater construction, it is important to monitor the water quality environment during construction in order to minimize the occurrence of turbidity and changes in water quality, but the water quality monitoring system of this embodiment allows the water quality environment in the construction area to be real-time and highly accurate. It is possible to immediately monitor the impact on the environment such as water pollution diffusion, and promptly feed back to the work ship W, so that the pollution diffusion prevention measures can be quickly implemented. Moreover, since it is remote monitoring, measurement work on the water can be reduced, and measurement data can be acquired safely even in stormy weather. Moreover, continuous measurement data can be recorded day and night, contributing to improved accountability in the event of an emergency.

  In addition, as a measure for improving the reliability of the water quality monitoring devices 1 to 4, the temperature, humidity, and voltage of the water quality monitoring device are monitored in real time day and night, and when the temperature, humidity, and voltage deviate from the set values, or large If there is a change, it is possible to immediately notify the construction personnel about the occurrence of abnormality. These processes are automatically performed by a computer, human error can be avoided because humans do not intervene, and rapid processing is possible, and equipment managers take appropriate maintenance and repair measures for water quality monitoring equipment. It becomes possible.

  Also, by receiving GPS signals, the positions of the water quality monitoring devices 1 to 4 are continuously monitored in real time day and night, and the positions of the water quality monitoring devices 1 to 4 exceed the allowable value and have moved outside the predetermined range. If judged, it is possible to immediately inform the construction personnel about the occurrence of abnormality. These processes are automatically performed by a computer, and human errors can be avoided because humans do not intervene, and quick processes are possible. Here, the allowable value is a movement range of the water quality monitoring device obtained from the margin length of the mooring rope R1 of the device of FIG. 4, and can be set to 5 m, for example. When the measured values of the positions of the water quality monitoring devices 1 to 4 exceed the allowable value, it is assumed that the mooring rope is cut due to the influence of waves or the like and the water quality monitoring device is flowing. By rapidly transmitting such abnormality occurrence information to construction personnel, it is possible to reduce the risk to third parties such as collisions with other ships.

  As mentioned above, the temperature, humidity, power supply voltage, and position information of the water quality monitoring device can be quickly and reliably transmitted to a plurality of device managers via the mobile phone network and the Internet line as well as the turbidity measurement data. it can. As described above, with regard to the management of the water quality monitoring device, a highly reliable data transmission network can be constructed by using the mobile phone network and the Internet line.

When a water area observation network is unnecessary, one water quality monitoring device may be installed at the observation point and only one at the reference point for background measurement.

  In FIG. 2, when the abnormality occurrence information or the like is sent from the ground station T to a remote place, it is via a general Internet line, but it is of course possible to use a dedicated line.

  1 and 2, the information processing apparatus 31 is installed in the ground station T. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the information processing apparatus 31 is installed in the work ship W and is provided with the communication unit W1. Also good.

  In addition, information can be transmitted from the information processing device 31 to the water quality monitoring devices 1 to 4. For example, the setting of the time interval and time of turbidity measurement and background measurement can be changed as necessary. May be.

  In addition, a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, a wind direction anemometer, and the like are mounted outside the water quality monitoring devices 1 to 4 to measure the environmental temperature, environmental humidity, wind direction, wind speed, and the like of the construction water area, and transmit them to the information processing device 31 in the same manner. However, the environmental temperature, environmental humidity, wind direction and wind speed of the construction water area can be confirmed, and the environmental state of the construction water area can be grasped in more detail.

  In addition, in this embodiment, the water quality to be monitored by the water quality monitoring system is described as turbidity / chlorophyll, but the present invention is not limited to this, and dissolved oxygen (DO), pH, salinity, COD, BOD Other water qualities such as hydrogen sulfide may be used, and monitoring can be performed by setting the control value and the limit value in the same manner using the corresponding water quality measurement sensor.

  Further, in the present embodiment, when the measured value of turbidity deviates beyond the limit value, the abnormality occurrence information is issued as the deviation occurrence information, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the limit value is set.
