Protecting your territory from flood and drought risks
Provid your territory with a flood and drought prevention system. Our micro-stations provide constant monitoring of the state of your watercourses, enabling you to anticipate natural hazards.
Anticipate risks
Flooding threatens almost a quarter of the global population and around 12% of the world’s 2020 GDP will be located in high-risk areas, causing devastating material and human damage.
The intensification and multiplication of natural hazards highlight the lack of indicators for river management. However, the effectiveness of a prevention strategy lies in the collection of relevant local hydrological data.
Real-time monitoring of watercourses becomes imperative to reinforce safety and improve the resilience of local territories.
Make the right decisions at the right time
VorteX-io offers much more than technology. A unique service to protect your territory. Our energy self-sufficient micro-stations provide exceptionally accurate, wide ranging measurements, enabling you to anticipate risks more accurately.
Deployable anywhere, micro-stations increase the coverage of your local territory.
Access an intuitive platform to make risk-adjusted decisions. Instant notifications warn you when alert thresholds are crossed.
All-in-one service
The technology embedded in our micro-stations works in conjunction with the Maelstrom platform, giving you instant access to hydrological measurements of your watercourses.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does service activation work?
When a station is already installed, you just need to subscribe to access the data.
If you want a sensor as close as possible to your area of responsibility, we can install the equipment with our partner rope access technicians.
You only pay the service subscription from the time of activation.
What are the guarantees of data reliability?
The reliability of our data is our top priority. Our sensors are based on technology inherited from spatial altimetry. It guarantees a measurement that does not drift over time and retains its accuracy.
Additionally, data consistency checking algorithms perform intelligent post-processing of measurements.
Is your service compatible with third-party sensors?
The measurements provided by public sensors of state networks are accessible free of charge from the platform. Only the activation of additional services such as threshold crossing notification is chargeable.
Data from other third-party sensors can be integrated into the platform upon quote. Our team of technicians will ensure the integration of your existing data.
How can we ensure that your solution is compatible with our existing systems?
VorteX-io offers seamless integration with various systems via the API. We work closely with your technical team to ensure a smooth implementation.
Our solution adapts to your specific needs, making it easy to adopt within your organization.
What is the total cost of your solution?
Our customers only have the cost of the data subscription.
The subscription includes :
- access to measurements,
- data visualization on the Maelstrom platform,
- maintenance of micro-stations.
In the absence of a sensor near your area of responsibility, vorteX-io covers the installation cost, as well as all associated procedures.
