Challenge

The water utility faced persistent challenges with a problematic District Metered Area (DMA) characterised by high water demand, heavy traffic, and frequent leak occurrences. Traditional leak detection methods proved inefficient and costly due to the difficult environment and the need for repeated site visits to collect data. The utility sought a proactive, real-time solution to gain better control over water loss and improve operational efficiency.

Solution

Aqua Analytics devised a strategic approach to address the DMA’s challenges in collaboration with the water utility. This involved:
