Data collection · telemetry, fieldwork and loggers
From datalogger and field round to the BRO, without manual work
Dawaco Phrea™ collects your logger data on a schedule, checks it and delivers the levels to the Dutch subsurface registry (BRO) on time: provisional first, final after your validation. Field rounds, manual measurements and your whole logger fleet live in the same system. No downloads, no intermediate files, no loose links in the chain.
The logger measures. Phrea does the rest.
A telemetric datalogger might measure every hour and transmit its data once a day. In many monitoring networks, that is where the manual work starts: downloading files, importing, checking and submitting. In Phrea the readings arrive by themselves, at fixed times, straight from your loggers or telemetry service.
Phrea checks the readings before anything leaves the building and delivers the levels to the BRO on time: provisional first, and final as soon as you have validated them. For every monitoring point you see whether everything is on schedule, and where it stalls if it is not.
What you get, from the field to the registry
Telemetry, fieldwork and logger management are not add-on links. They are part of the same product as your validation and your BRO delivery.
-
Readings arrive by themselves Module
At fixed times, without anyone downloading files. Logger files you read out yourself are imported as standard.
-
Checked before it leaves
Readings are checked for plausibility before delivery, not after.
-
Provisional, then final
Your levels are in the BRO on time, and final as soon as you have validated them. Without you having to start a delivery yourself.
-
Field rounds that add up
A level round past your wells, in an order your field worker can simply walk, knowing what to measure where.
-
FieldForm field app and manual measurements
The round goes out to the FieldForm field app and the field data come back into Phrea. You can also record a manual measurement directly, as a level in NAP.
-
Your logger fleet in view
What hangs where, what is ready and what needs attention. So you plan a round with the logger you actually have.
Some functions are available as an add-on module.
Every level against the right reference point
A level is only as good as the records beneath it. Phrea keeps those records, so you do not have to think about them.
Phrea knows which logger hangs where and calculates every level against the reference point that applied at the time, even years back.
The fleet overview shows at a glance which loggers are ready and which need attention.
Fast, and still careful
Automatic delivery does not mean losing anything
Your measurement stays your measurement. The raw measurement is always kept, and every correction carries a reason and can be reverted. Provisional delivery therefore never comes at the expense of later review, and a correction made today does not erase what the logger measured yesterday.
Your own database is the source and the BRO is the output. What Phrea delivers is checked before it leaves, and you can see how every delivery stands. GMW and GLD are standard in Phrea; GMN, GAR and FRD are available as an add-on module.

What one product changes about the measuring work
Three places where measuring work changes when field, logger and registry sit in one chain.
Works with your monitoring network
You do not have to replace your loggers or telemetry services. Phrea takes over the data from what is already in the field, and connects to the FieldForm field app, your lab and the BRO.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions about data collection
Do I have to replace my dataloggers?
No. Phrea takes over the data from the loggers and telemetry services you already use, and reads logger files. The platform page lists the loggers and systems Phrea works with.
When do the data go to the BRO?
On time, and first as provisional data. As soon as you have validated them, they go to the BRO as final data.
What happens to the raw measurement when I correct it?
It is kept. Every correction carries a reason and can be reverted.
Is an old level still right after the well has been surveyed again?
Yes. Every level is calculated against the reference point that applied at the time, even years back.
Does it work with the FieldForm field app?
Yes. A level round from Phrea goes out to FieldForm and the field data come back into Phrea. You can also record manual measurements directly in Phrea.
Is telemetry included as standard?
Importing logger files is standard. With the telemetry module, readings arrive automatically. Some functions are available as an add-on module.
When is Phrea available?
Dawaco Phrea™ is available from October 2026.
