A water data internet powered by photosynthesis
Sustainable Data Infrastructure
Building a network of water data producers, users, and decision-makers across the nation to advance the uptake of modern technologies and improve water management outcomesBioenergy
Our network is run with self-generated electricity by photosynthesis. No extra electricity supply is needed.Modular Design
The algae solar cell is designed to be modular that can be connected in parallel or series, and integrated with standardised pipe parts sourced from local hardware stores.Water Quality Map
How does Phytonet Work?
Sensing organ of waterways
The algae-powered web server not only hosts web content but it is also embedded with environmental sensors to monitor the water quality such as temperature, dissolved oxygen level, and pH of the canal. The data are shared as open data accessible to the community.
