About HydroLynx Systems
From humble beginnings to global impact — protecting communities through real-time hydrological monitoring since 1998.
Our Story
In the early 1990s, the acquisition of Sierra-Misco by NovaLynx Inc sparked the creation of HydroLynx Systems Inc. Founded in 1998, HydroLynx emerged from a shared vision between its founders, Kim Blair and David Leader, to develop technology that would safeguard communities against floods.
Driven by a passion for protecting lives and property, HydroLynx spearheaded initiatives to develop Real Time Data Telemetry Systems utilizing ALERT and ALERT2 protocols. These systems, embraced by municipalities and industries worldwide, interface with SCADA systems providing early warning capabilities that transformed flood preparedness.
A New Chapter with ISG Devices
In 2023, HydroLynx was acquired by ISG Devices, a renowned provider of detection and measurement devices. This expanded HydroLynx's product offerings and opened doors to a broader customer base.
