GNSS (GPS and the like) can be used to measure water level, using reflectometry. The direct signal from the satellite also arrives late at the receiver due to reflection off the sea, and signal-to-noise levels change with the angle as the satellite passes overhead. 🌊

my previous job used time domain reflectometry to detect fuel level in tanks. You could implement a TDR to find shorts in overhead power lines pretty easily; the only thing is determining the velocity factor and characteristic impedance
