DoRare Station

DoRare Station is a complete water-level station for 1 location with no electricity or network cabling but with 4G coverage. The kit includes water-level radar, a backup level sensor for cross-checking, a rain gauge, weather sensors, an AI camera reading a staff gauge, solar panels, a LiFePO4 (lithium phosphate) battery and 4G. During signal loss, the station stores data locally according to the specifications below; we confirm this for the proposed model before quoting. The per-location price includes surveying, installation, training, a data SIM and cloud service for the first 2 years.

From THB 250,000 per station (including VAT)

The per-location price includes the station pole, foundation, survey and design, installation and calibration, and staff training.

Warranty and after-sales service

  • 2-year warranty covering both hardware and software service
  • Send repairs to the service centre in Nonthaburi. Repairs are completed and returned within 7 working days, with free loan equipment during repair.
  • Solar panels and batteries are replaced by sending a new unit first and collecting the original afterwards, so the station does not have to wait for the original unit to be repaired.
  • Preventive maintenance by the local installation provider under its contract with the agency
  • Commitment to continuous spare-parts supply for at least 5 years

Excludes damage from installation that does not follow the manual, lightning where the specified protection system was not installed, equipment modification and theft.

Preparation and operating conditions

DoRare Station installation site

  • A position where the camera can see the full staff gauge and the cabinet can be installed at least 1.5 metres above the highest flood level in the past 10 years
  • Local 4G coverage, tested by the local installer during the survey, or an agency LAN port
  • A local benchmark or reference station for calibrating water levels against mean sea level
  • The agency applies for site-use permission. The local installation provider prepares documents, drawings and technical information within the agreed scope.

Software and data

  • Use a web browser on computers and mobile devices without installing an app; no limit on the number of users within the agency
  • Stored in a data centre in Thailand, with automatic daily backups and 1 year of backup retention
  • All data belongs to the agency, in accordance with Thailand's Personal Data Protection Act, 2019
  • If cloud service is not renewed, the station continues to measure, store data locally and activate threshold-based warnings as usual.

Existing-camera reading service

  • CCTV cameras with a clear view of a staff gauge by day and night
  • A means for the system to access camera images; the team assesses sample images before use

FAQ · DoRare Station

Will the station keep working through several days without sunlight?

Yes. The station specification requires a 100 Ah LiFePO4 (lithium phosphate) battery to power the system for at least 7 days without sunlight at normal reporting intervals. As charge falls, the field processor in the cabinet automatically lengthens reporting intervals to save power, and the system alerts when energy drops below the threshold. Crisis Power Management is a separate crisis-saving mode that lets sensors operate for 1 month without sunlight by reducing their operating frequency, so it differs from normal reporting intervals.

What happens if the 4G signal is lost?

The station continues measuring and stores at least 30 days of data locally, then uploads all backlogged data when the signal returns. Meanwhile it can independently activate public-address systems or rotating beacons according to the agency's thresholds.

What are the costs in later years, and what happens if service is not renewed?

Data SIM and cloud fees for the first 2 years are included in the station price. Annual fees from year 3 are stated in the quotation. If service is not renewed, the station continues measuring, storing data locally and activating warnings as usual. Staff can download data through an on-site connection. Renewing restores cloud access immediately without another initial setup fee.

Who owns the measured data?

All data belongs to the agency and is stored in a data centre in Thailand. It can be exported as CSV or Excel. At the end of the contract, raw data and image files are handed over within 30 days at no extra charge.

Do camera images affect residents' privacy?

DoRare reduces the impact in 3 ways: aiming cameras only at waterways and public areas, reducing public web image resolution so individuals and vehicle registration plates cannot be identified, and placing recording notices at installation sites.

Where has DoRare Station been installed in practice?

In 2026, we installed DoRare Station at the listed 20 riverside locations across 4 Thai provinces for a private company that commissioned flood-monitoring work. We learned that cameras must clearly show the staff gauge and each station's scale must be calibrated before AI reading begins. Your project should therefore start with a list of risk locations and coordinates, followed by camera-angle surveys and 4G signal tests at each location.
