Aquora Environmental is a specialty consulting firm focused exclusively on hydrometric, water-quality, and climate monitoring. The name Aquora combines Aqua, meaning water, with ora, reflecting value and importance—representing water as a critical resource that must be measured, managed, and interpreted using accurate, defensible data. The firm delivers monitoring programs that are practical, reliable, and designed to perform in real operating environments.

Aquora’s work centres on data integrity. Monitoring programs are developed with a clear understanding of how stations are sited, installed, maintained, and verified in the field, and how data move from sensor to final output. This end-to-end perspective ensures consistent, high-quality records that support operational requirements, regulatory obligations, and informed decision-making.

The firm’s experience spans hydrometric and environmental monitoring programs across British Columbia, Alberta, Yukon, the Northwest Territories, and Nunavut. This background informs the design of systems that remain functional in challenging environments, where access constraints, climate, and logistics place significant demands on monitoring infrastructure.

What differentiates Aquora is its singular focus. Water monitoring is not one service among many—it is the core of the practice. This specialization allows hydrometric, water-quality, and climate datasets to be integrated into coherent, defensible decision-support tools rather than treated as isolated outputs.

Aquora Environmental is led by Ryan Seibel, a hydrometric specialist with over 17 years of experience delivering surface-water monitoring programs. Ryan’s background includes field operations, network design, data QA/QC, and senior operational leadership roles within the Water Survey of Canada. This experience shapes Aquora’s emphasis on practical execution, disciplined data practices, and monitoring systems that perform reliably under real-world conditions.
