The architecture of a system is considered that is used for regional water resource quality monitoring of
environmental parameters using heterogeneous data sources such as remote sensing data, model data, and data
of in-situ observations. The system’s architecture and components are developed that are reusable and can be
applied to solving various monitoring problems. The monitoring of the aquatic environment of Dnieper estuary
is selected as an example of such a problem. A distinctive feature of such a system consists of using a Grid approach
to the distribution of complex computations and also the realization of computationally complicated
computations on supercomputers of the SKIT family. Typical components of the monitoring system are presented,
namely, those of data acquisition, data processing, simulation, and rendering of results. Figs: 6. Tabl.: 3.
