Detect algal risk before it disrupts your waterways
Legionella risk. Predicted, monitored, and managed in one platform.
Harmful algal blooms (HABs) are difficult to see coming – but costly to contain. D2K helps you monitor environmental conditions in real time, spot early warning signs, and respond before bloom events escalate.
Algal blooms are typically triggered by:
Warm weather and stagnant water
High nutrient loads (especially nitrogen and phosphorus)
Reduced flow rates or stratified water columns
Low dissolved oxygen levels
What D2K’s Information Engine™ Does
We have the best instructors
Our platform continuously tracks the parameters most likely to trigger algal blooms – so you stay informed and act early.
Case Study
Managing algal blooms
at Chifley Dam
At Chifley Dam, Bathurst Regional Council faces seasonal harmful algal bloom risk and a steady flow of lab test results for algae and algal toxins. AlgaeWatch takes those routine lab results and turns them into a clear risk view with trends and alerts, so the team can see where risk is building, prioritise sampling and treatment, and update stakeholders with confidence.
By replacing manual spreadsheets with a single, easy-to-read risk signal, Council can interpret results faster across sites and time periods, plan targeted actions sooner and keep a transparent record for internal reviews and public communications. This is a practical, preventative workflow that supports earlier decisions without relying on real-time water quality sensors.
