Thailand Raw Water Quality Dataset Analysis and Evaluation

Abstract

Sustainable water quality data are important for understanding historical variability and trends in river regimes, as well as the impact of industrial waste on the health of aquatic ecosystems. Sustainable water management practices heavily depend on reliable and comprehensive data, prompting the need for accurate monitoring and assessment of water quality parameters. This research describes a reconstructed daily water quality dataset that complements rare historical observations for six station points along the Chao Phraya River in Thailand. Internet of Things technology and a Eureka water probe sensor is used to collect and reconstruct the water quality dataset for the period from June 2022–February 2023, with Turbidity, Optical Dissolved Oxygen, Dissolved Oxygen Saturation, Spatial Conductivity, Acidity/Basicity, Total Dissolved Solids, Salinity, Temperature, Chlorophyll, and Depth as the recorded parameters from six different stations. The presented dataset comprises a total of 211,322 data points, which are separated into six CSV files. The dataset is then evaluated using the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) algorithm with a Mean Squared Error (MSE) of 0.0012256, and Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) of 0.0350080. The proposed dataset provides valuable insights for researchers studying river ecosystems, supporting informed decision-making and sustainable water management practices.
