LI-COR today announced that the HOBO MicroRX Water Level Station has been named a winner of Business and Infrastructure in the 2026 Environment+Energy Leader Awards, which recognizes products and leading solutions across infrastructure, technology, and operational performance.
“As organizations navigate an increasingly dynamic and uncertain operating environment, the ability to improve efficiency, reduce emissions, and deliver measurable results has never been more critical,” said Sarah Roberts, Co-President and Publisher of Environment+Energy Leader. “This year's winners demonstrate the innovation and leadership required to move forward with clarity and impact.”
Water systems in particular play a critical role in environmental sustainability. They influence infrastructure resilience, regulatory compliance, ecosystem health, and long-term resource availability. Managing these systems responsibly depends on reliable water data that is consistently collected, easily accessible, and able to inform timely, data-driven action.
Designed for remote and long-term deployment, the HOBO MicroRX Water Level Station measures water level and flow using HOBO water level sensors. It supports continuous data collection in applications such as stormwater systems, groundwater, and surface water monitoring. This allows users to observe changing conditions over time rather than relying on periodic site visits or manual downloads. By providing consistent and high-resolution data, the MicroRX Water Level Station also helps users track trends, identify emerging issues, and better manage water resources.
“Sustainable water management depends on having timely, trustworthy data,” said Mamadou Ba, Director of Product Management at LI-COR. “The MicroRX Water Level Station helps users move from reactive responses to proactive planning by delivering continuous, defensible water level data that supports regulatory compliance, responsible resource management, environmental research, and much more.”

In addition, the MicroRX Water Level Station's software includes built-in flow calculations that remove time-consuming post-processing and reduce the risk of error. Real-time alarms notify users immediately when thresholds are exceeded—enabling faster responses to storm events, flooding, and more.
Data from the MicroRX Water Level Station is then delivered to LI-COR Cloud® where users can remotely view measurements, configure alarms, and share results with collaborators. The platform also supports additional HOBO smart sensors, allowing multiple environmental parameters to be monitored through a single station. Consolidating measurements in this manner both simplifies monitoring programs and provides a more complete picture of site conditions—a key factor in long-term environmental stewardship.
The HOBO MicroRX Water Level Station is part of the HOBO portfolio of remote monitoring systems trusted worldwide in environmental research, water resource management, and regulatory applications.
