A system for externally monitoring a tank level is provided. The system includes a tank monitoring computer device and at least one sensor array. The at least one sensor array includes a plurality of sensors and a plurality of fasteners. The at least one sensor array is configured to be attached to a tank by the plurality of fasteners. The tank monitoring computer device is in communication with the at least one sensor array. The tank monitoring computer device is programmed to a) receive a plurality of sensor readings from the plurality of sensors associated with the at least one sensor array, b) calculate a first tank level using a first method, c) calculate a second tank level using a second method, d) compare the first tank level to the second tank level to determine a final tank level, and e) report the final tank level.
