A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
The International Telecommunications Union (ITU) notes that it has developed common standards for the Internet of Things ubiquitous sensor networks; such standards have yet to be drawn up and applied in smart water management. Utilities need regulatory and operational incentives to adopt smart water approaches. If utilities are unable to charge for water consumption, no incentive for demand management exists. Many of the obstacles that face the deployment of smart water approaches reflect the challenges faces by those seeking to offer innovations in the water sector in general. The challenges include the need to ensure the effective adoption of new technologies, maintaining the integrity of systems, questions about operating and transmission standards and interoperability along with the ownership of the data being generated. Concerns about stranded assets can hinder the deployment of smart metering, where recently installed assets would have to be replaced and likewise, innovations have employment implications.
