TARGET GROUP: URBAN PEOPLE

OBJECTIVES

·        To ensure equitable access to adequate quality water and related services to rapidly growing urban population while protecting the environment.

SUMMARY

Digitalization plays a major role in the delivery of the water services and the performance of many underlying functions. Water supply, one of the fundamental roles of water utilities, is becoming increasingly digitalized and providing real-time information regarding water quantity and quality for consumers. Large water distribution networks with pipes, valves, pumps, and reservoirs are connected to the sources of water and consumption points, and numerous consumer connections are monitored, operated, and managed using digital technology.
