The Environment Agency (EA) and Natural Resources Wales (NRW) operate a large number of monitoring sites throughout England and Wales. The EA operate six telemetry systems based on old regional boundaries. The management of these systems is via a national service consisting of three telemetry hubs each supporting two systems. The management and maintenance of field equipment is carried out in fourteen area based teams. The EA is in the process of adopting the use of DNP3, WITs DNP3 protocols and IP packet switched data communications to field telemetry outstations. NRW operate in a similar manner to the EA, and wish to adapt the use of IP packet switched communication in the future.
