Real-time Ganga river water quality forecasting using AI- enabled DSS, satellite data, IoT, and dynamic models.

Source

Source summary

Develop an AI-enabled decision-support system forecasting Ganga water quality and flow by combining satellite observations, IoT sensors, meteorology, in-situ measurements and hydrological/hydrodynamic models. Provide historical simulations and three-to-five-day forecasts along the river, with recalibration against observations, uncertainty estimates, scenario modelling and pollution alerts. Proposed web/mobile maps and time series cover nutrients, dissolved oxygen, BOD and faecal coliform. Serve scientists, operational managers, regulators and the public; the source also requests post-project monitoring of government investments. SaaS is a suggested delivery model.

Automatic Weather Station

Provide a compact, lightweight automatic weather station for tracked and wheeled military vehicles. It should measure wind speed/direction, pressure, temperature and humidity and transmit a data package through an interface every 100 milliseconds. The brief specifies a mobile-platform instrument, not a fixed civilian station.

Developing innovative solution for efficient management of waste and conversion to valuable products, Waste to Energy- waste recycling

Develop municipal-waste solutions reducing landfill disposal and recovering value. The source proposes community collection/recycling, digital tracking from generation to recycling, local torrefaction of MSW pellets for bioenergy, and landfill-gas capture/treatment. These are possible directions in an integrated waste-management challenge; net-zero communities and emission reductions remain intended outcomes, not proven results.

Research and develop a design on “ autonomous water surface cleaning robot “

Design a transportable water-surface cleaning robot, autonomous or remotely controlled, using Autodesk Fusion. The source specifies dimensions of 2.5 × 1.5 × 0.75 metres, 80 kg weight, maximum speed 1.5 m/s and 25 kg waste payload. Include IoT/AI applications and optimise at least one component through generative design. Initial submissions require conceptual slides, not finished design files; final designs are to be created during the event and presented with a public design link, renders and animations.
