Amman, August 4 (Petra) - Zain Jordan expanded its environmental monitoring partnership with the Royal Scientific Society (RSS), according to its statement on Tuesday.

In addition to maintaining its support for the Higher Council for Science and Technology's national water quality monitoring stations since 2003, Zain is now providing telecommunications services for the Ministry of Environment’s air quality stations for the first time.

By providing telecommunications for hourly air and water quality tracking, Zain uses tech-driven innovation to support national resource protection and sustainable resource management. This accurate data enables authorities to make informed decisions while supporting key UN Sustainable Development Goals: SDG 6 (Clean Water), SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities), SDG 13 (Climate Action), and SDG 17 (Partnerships).

As part of this collaboration, Zain will supply the telecommunications infrastructure needed to efficiently transmit data from 12 air quality monitoring stations across Russeifa, Mafraq, Baqaa, Jiza, Muwaqqar, Irbid, Sahab, Karak, Hasa, and Zarqa.

Equipped with automated systems, these stations collect, analyze, and transmit hourly air quality readings in real time, significantly strengthening national environmental monitoring and preserving air quality across Jordan.

Zain and the RSS have partnered for 19 years to support the National Remote Water Quality Monitoring Project. Zain provides data transmission services and Real Static IP connectivity for 13 monitoring stations across Jordan’s primary surface water sources, including the Yarmouk, Jordan, and Zarqa rivers, the King Abdullah Canal, the Kufranja Dam outlet, and the inlet and outlet of King Talal Dam.

These automated stations conduct real-time physical and chemical analyses and transmit data hourly, giving authorities the insights needed to protect and manage the Kingdom's water resources sustainably.

Zain stated its commitment to leveraging advanced telecommunications to support high-impact environmental and social projects. By contributing to a smart monitoring ecosystem aligned with technological progress, Zain continues to bolster national efforts to preserve the environment and safeguard the Kingdom’s natural resources.
