Abstract: The article describes the choice of appropriate network technology that provides sufficient coverage to allow the sensor network to be placed even in the remote and difficult to reach locations and the data to reach the cloud server. Further it describes the components of the sensor network, the operating principle, architecture and the processing of the data obtained to convert them into the input data used in the hydrological simulation model. The NB-IoT sensor network proposed by the authors would not only collect the data needed to operate hydrological simulation models, but, for example, could provide the data needed to forecast weather conditions, particularly if the architecture of this sensor network, because of its low cost, would be widely applied around the globe, joining a unified global sensor network.
