Problem Description
We’re looking for startups that can make collecting and analyzing water samples from rivers and streams faster and more reliable.
This could include technologies that:
- Allow safe and consistent sample collection, even in hard-to-reach or flooded areas
- Make it possible to take samples more frequently
- Ideally, enable continuous or on-site water quality analysis
Currently, the process faces several challenges: Flooding or difficult access can interrupt sample collection, there’s often a long delay between taking a sample and getting the results, and a lot of manual work is involved.
