Stream Water Level Data from Stage Cam Box Prototype

Preliminary test data from the Stage Cam Box, a compact autonomous sensor for continuous water level monitoring in headwater streams. The dataset includes software, documentation, and results from adverse sunlight conditions, authored by Simone Noto and released in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Train image-based water level estimation models using the high-contrast target imagery from the SCB.
• Validate edge-computing software for real-time water level analysis in variable lighting conditions.
• Analyze the performance of autonomous sensor units in adverse sunlight conditions documented in the experimental results.

Strengths

• Dataset includes the complete software (PY files) for the Stage Cam Box system.
• Preliminary experimental results are provided, testing the system in adverse sunlight conditions.
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse and modification.

Limitations

• Small dataset at 27.7 MB, indicating limited scope of preliminary test data.
• Specific row counts, column names, and sample data are unavailable for quantitative assessment.
• Geographic coverage and temporal range of the test data are unspecified.
