Water Loss and Leak Detection Resources

  1. Greater Johnstown Water Authority: Machine Learning Targets Non-Revenue Water 10/21/2026

    Pumping stations reveal that water is disappearing but not where. Predicting pipe failure likelihood can point field crews to specific segments before anyone digs, replacing broad searches with targeted validation.

  2. Finding Leaks On Large Water Mains In Singapore Using Advanced Algorithms 10/19/2026

    Physics-driven algorithms and refined data processing are changing how acoustic monitoring finds leaks on large transmission mains, and standardized performance metrics are changing how utilities judge whether those systems work.

  3. Solutions For Safe Drinking Water 10/19/2026

    Water quality depends on keeping distribution lines moving and monitored. Automatic flushing, connected sampling, pressure management, and leak detection work best together, with two municipal deployments showing the results.

  4. Utility-Grade AMI Without Added Operations 10/15/2026

    A large Kansas water utility modernized metering communications without owning or running the network. The tradeoffs of managed AMI connectivity, and what hourly data enabled, are in the details.

  5. How NMED Is Combating Statewide Water Loss Using Innovative Technology 10/15/2026

    Field-verified results from the first year of New Mexico's leak detection effort show how remote sensing can reach utilities serving fewer than 20,000 people, and what it found.

  6. Satellite-Based Leak Detection 10/15/2026

    L-band radar can detect hidden subsurface leaks across entire distribution networks, but its value depends on data quality and on how well it directs conventional field methods to priority areas.

  7. How One Small Utility Made A Big Impact On Water Loss Using Satellite-Based, AI-Powered Leak Detection 10/15/2026

    Satellite-guided targeting helps a small, drought-stressed utility find hidden leaks across hilly desert terrain in days rather than weeks, with field effort concentrated on a fraction of the network.

  8. How Duncanville, TX Found 80 Leaks In Just 15 Days Using Satellite-Based Leak Detection 10/15/2026

    Rocky soil can carry leaks through fissures and into creeks without a trace at the surface. Satellite-guided detection changes how a small crew finds real water loss and sets priorities.

  9. From Four Fragmented Systems To One Unified, Managed Network 10/13/2026

    A high-desert water utility replaced a patchwork of legacy meter-reading technologies with one managed AMI network, gaining hourly data and better billing without building a network operations team.

  10. The True Cost Of Non-Revenue Water: Why Every Utility Should Measure Water Loss 9/21/2026

    Treating water requires significant energy and labor, but unmonitored infrastructure leaks and inaccurate customer meters quietly drain operational budgets. Identifying hidden losses and auditing system measurement protects revenue and optimizes long-term distribution performance.
