# IMGW-PIB

> IMGW-PIB is a built-in integration for Home Assistant. It has 415 installs sharing analytics and needs the vendor's cloud.

IMGW-PIB is a built-in integration that reads hydrological station data from a cloud service. It adds sensors for water level, water flow and water temperature at a chosen station. Further sensors report a hydrological alert, ice phenomena, and emergent, floating and submerged vegetation cover. Setup happens in the UI, where a hydrological station is selected from a list. A diagnostics file can be downloaded to attach to a bug report.
