WHAT: Concurrent Session 4A – SCADA IMPLEMENTATION II “Integrated Hybrid Radio Communication Networks”
 
 If you are collecting data from multiple locations and delivering it to offices over a widespread area, no one system will be able to accomplish this. However, by combining technologies, the user can create a seamless data stream from several locations and share data over a LAN or WAN with multiple users. The end result is more effective and efficient management of their network, increased reliability through reduced downtime – all at a much more affordable price.

 This presentation will provide attendees with specific ways they can set up and deploy hybrid networks to drive maintenance/monthly costs down – directly impacting their bottom line; decreasing polling cycle times; reducing the time needed to identify and rectify problems within the network; and, eliminating system “pinch points” – or single points of failure.
 
 
 Plenary Session 2 – Canal Operations and Management Panel
 
Steele will moderate three topics of discussion in this panel group. Two groups of professionals from Texas A&M University, College Station Texas, will help lead discussions regarding “Flow Calibration of the Bryan Canal Radial Gate at the United Irrigation District” and the “Synthetic Canal Lining Evaluation Project.” Finally, a member of the Agricultural Research Service from Maricopa, AZ will help shed light on “Considering Canal Pool Resonance in Controller Design.”
