Empowering Water Utilities Through Meter Data

Water utilities face intense pressure to modernize infrastructure while managing climate impacts and rising operational costs. Shifting from infrequent manual meter reading to Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) provides a foundation for digital transformation, enabling near real-time data collection. However, the true value lies in processing this high-volume data to drive actionable insights. Modern Meter Data Management (MDM) platforms act as central hubs, normalizing data from diverse sources to improve accuracy and streamline business processes. Beyond billing, these systems are critical for identifying network leaks, optimizing District Meter Areas (DMAs), and enhancing customer engagement through detailed usage profiles. By leveraging advanced analytics for anomaly detection and consumption analysis, utilities can reduce non-revenue water, boost operational efficiency, and empower consumers to adopt sustainable habits.
