Non-contact laser doppler velocity meters use a laser to measure water velocity throughout a channel's cross-section, while another part of the device is measuring the depth of water. Together the two datasets are used to compute streamflow.

Quality assurance is an important aspect of data collection. This means periodically checking the stage measurements for accuracy and making streamflow measurements manually at stormwater monitoring sites across Hampton Roads to compare to those computed from streamflow models.

Water quality sondes collect continuous data from stormwater monitoring sites, but can often become fouled with algae, which interferes with the sonde's ability to collect accurate data. To keep these sondes clean between field visits, remote-activated bilge pumps are used to blast the algae from the sondes.
