The overall objective of this project is the immediate enhancement of the water quality management in Serbia as an example of excellence for the South East Balkan region. Therefore, close links between the local and regional economy and the Serbian Higher Education sector will be created through technology and knowledge transfer. New technologies like GPRS Technology to realize data transfer from distance hydro measure stations will be introduced in the water quality monitoring management. Outcomes of the project are a measurement program for Advanced River Water Quality Monitoring, a pilot station and operator staff for the realization of the monitoring scheme devices including GPRS-Technology for the monitoring scheme, a monitoring station to conduct a test run, a quality management scheme, training measures for operators of monitoring stations, analyzed data from measurement program and dissemination and networking measures like a final international conference.
