Single point sensing element for FDC1004

What would be the topology of a single point capacitive water level sensor to be immersed in a rectangular/tubular container (about 2 feet in diameter and about 2-3 feet in height).

There is no access to this vessel from the outside.

Would it be of the digitated fingers type or just 2 square/rectangular areas on a pcb (or some other shape)?

How would I calculate the size of the traces in case of the digitated type and the size of the pads in case of the co-planer square/rectangular areas?

The sensor will be embedded in a rectangular/round tube/channel and sealed (containing all the circuitry).

Thank you

Gabe
