Water Data Collection
The Water Industry, as a market, depends on paper. This industry collects reams of data from operations to fill their “Just in Case” data storage and retrieval systems. The Industry collects a lot of data but it is not likely and even impractical to hope these boxes of log sheets will provide answers “Just in Time”! Decision making depends on data and critical decision making depends on having data at hand.
Paper based data is an endemic problem in the water and wastewater Industry.
There are water shortages in the West, drought in the East, floods all over, and demand continues to grow. The need to manage water is in the spotlight. The industry is characterized by an installed and aging infrastructure that has little or no budget to retrofit automatic control systems. The current estimate to upgrade the Water and Wastewater infrastructure in the US is projected at $72 Billion. This is a growing market, a growing problem and a growing opportunity for water operators to lead.
Chang the way data is collected and used would have the biggest impact on what seems to be an insurmountable problem. Replacing hand written log sheets with digital data can be done using a range of hand-held devices, including a common cell phone. Operators in the field enter log sheet data that is transmitted to a hosted data management and automated reporting system for a complete water data collection and report service.
The key to good decision making is having “Readily Available, Useable and Reliable Data.” the paper process is digitized, “Data Efficiency” is in reach and the tools and best practices for water data collection and reporting for the Water & Wastewater Industry can be used.
What does that mean to the market? Some 68,000 systems serve approximately 75% of the US Population. This translates into more than 650,000 facilities, including water and wastewater treatment plants, distribution and collection systems. Each of these facilities is a place on a map where a State licensed Operator has to go and see something, do something and record something. Today, they are still predominantly using paper and pencil. This is where a unique, easy to use and inexpensive water data collection tool to digitize log sheets could help them make a giant leap towards data efficiency.
Having data available when you need it is critical for good management decision making. Adopting technology will help the Water Industry get on the digital train to the 21st century.
