Best Answer

Water level sensors are commonly used in river and stream monitoring applications because they are cost-effective ways to estimate real-time river flow measurements. The river or stream's level can be used with a water flow rating curve to estimate flow continuously. Level is measurable either with a pressure, bubbler, or non-contact radar sensor.
