Upcoming Webinar: Using AI + Satellite Technology To Reduce NRW And Monitor Critical Infrastructure Assets at Scale

Traditional leak detection approaches are often localized, labor‑intensive, and can make it difficult to assess priorities system-wide. As utilities seek broader, data‑driven strategies, satellite‑based technology combined with AI analysis has emerged as a proven tool that can detect potable water leaks up to 10 feet underground across large geographic areas of up to 1,000 square miles in a single satellite pass.
