Comparing water pressure data resolutions and their leak detection capabilities

In response to continued pressure on water resources, environmental impact and expectations from regulatory bodies, water and wastewater pipeline networks are increasingly using pipeline data to reduce water leakage, minimize water supply interruptions and mitigate the damage caused by pollution incidents.

The quality of the data being used by the water industry will determine how effective a leak detection system’s ability to detect when and where leaks occur though.

Martin Duff, our Business Development Director for water, compares water pressure data resolutions and their leak detection capabilities in this recent feature for Water Digest. Topics covered in this article include:

  • The current state of water leakage data
  • Low-resolution water leakage data
  • High-resolution water leakage data
  • The human element
  • The role of instrumentation in reducing water leakage
