Hi Charles!
Our company proposes an innovative tool to improve the communication between water managers and citizens. The application is cloud-based, where the citizens have access to geolocalized information on water: drinking water quality in their sector, display on a map of all events affecting water quality (construction, flush, use of fire hydrants, etc.) and alerts or advisories. All these are presented with educational content to better understand and use water. The same platform also serves to collect citizens' (geolocalized) complaints and observations, which is directly transferred to the manager's database. Hence, water managers can rapidly have an overview on the distribution system with the sampling points (and their data) and complaints. This allows a more efficient data and complaint management and increases confidence of citizens.
I attach a description of one of our projects, implemented in Québec City. Please feel free to contact me (ascheili@watershedmonitoring.com) to further discuss about smart water cities!
Take care!
