CyanoLakes

CyanoLakes helps manage cyanobacterial blooms using satellite imagery, addressing a critical challenge for lakes and other water bodies where harmful blooms can affect water quality. The solution is a satellite-based service providing near real-time detection and forecasting of harmful cyanobacterial (blue‑green algal) blooms in lakes and water bodies. By analysing observations derived from satellite imagery, it enables ongoing visibility of bloom conditions and supports informed environmental oversight.

Designed for water utilities and environmental agencies, the service is delivered via the cloud to support water quality monitoring. This approach allows organisations responsible for water management and environmental protection to access up‑to‑date information on bloom presence and development without relying solely on local sampling. Through the combination of satellite observations and cloud delivery, CyanoLakes provides a practical way to monitor, detect, and anticipate harmful cyanobacterial blooms across lakes and water bodies, supporting environmental impact assessments, risk awareness, and water modelling activities in the public administration sector.
