• Leveraging ddPCR Technology For Accurate Wastewater Surveillance Testing

  At this stage in the COVID-19 pandemic, where disease levels are diminishing in several parts of the U.S., authorities seeking to detect and isolate new outbreaks have found it best to transition from a triage-based clinical testing strategy to a broad surveillance strategy. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has turned to wastewater testing for surveillance because this form of community-based testing allows authorities to detect spikes in viral levels in a community days before individuals experience clinical symptoms while encompassing the part of the population that is asymptomatic or hesitant to be tested.

• Set For The Future—San Juan Water Implements Esri's ArcGIS Utility Network And Cityworks Computer Maintenance Management System

  San Juan Water District (SJWD) has used ArcGIS Utility Network as a foundation for the organization's computer maintenance management system (CMMS) implementation, which uses Cityworks. The Utility Network and the CMMS work from one centralized database for water distribution. The field crews can access the latest information and use the networking analysis capabilities for outage events via tablets in the field or a web browser in the office. The integration of these systems has improved reporting and inspection workflows while providing a single, authoritative source of truth.
