Autodesk Water Solutions For Every Stage Of The Water Lifecycle

By Trevor English

By 2050, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) predicts that water demand will increase by 55%. In the same period, UNESCO estimates that north of 2.5 Billion people could face a water shortage. That’s billion with a B.

There’s another side of the coin as well. As prevalent as water scarcity is, extreme weather events are creating an overabundance of water in certain areas, increasing the need for proper drainage design and the creation of more resilient drainage systems.

These facts, staggering as they might be, are the realities the water industry faces. These facts, as ever-present as they might be, are also what keep us as water professionals up at night.

Solving such daunting challenges serve as the battle cry for the modernization of the water industry; and for many addressing these challenges, is their north star in their pursuit of innovation in water design and management.

At Autodesk, our vision is simple: provide full water lifecycle management solutions for resilient and sustainable water systems – from cloud to sea.
