“…Although IoT-based water supply systems are introduced recently, there are several commercial solutions and platforms [45]- [47] available indicating the growing market demand. We found that most of the commercial solutions and platforms are focusing on the data collection, data integration, and data visualization using IoT sensors, while only a few offer predictive analytics of the acquired data [48].…”

Water distribution systems are one of the critical infrastructures and major assets of the water utility in a nation. The infrastructure of the distribution systems consists of resources, treatment plants, reservoirs, distribution lines, and consumers. A sustainable water distribution network management has to take care of accessibility, quality, quantity, and reliability of water. As water is becoming a depleting resource for the coming decades, the regulation and accounting of the water in terms of the above four parameters is a critical task. There have been many efforts towards the establishment of a monitoring and controlling framework, capable of automating various stages of the water distribution processes. The current trending technologies such as Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), Internet of Things (IoT), and Artificial Intelligence (AI) have the potential to track this spatially varying network to collect, process, and analyze the water distribution network attributes and events. In this work, we investigate the role and scope of the IoT technologies in different stages of the water distribution systems. Our survey covers the state-of-the-art monitoring and control systems for the water distribution networks, and the status of IoT architectures for water distribution networks. We explore the existing water distribution systems, providing the necessary background information on the current status. This work also presents an IoT Architecture for Intelligent Water Networks -IoTA4IWNet, for real-time monitoring and control of water distribution networks. We believe that to build a robust water distribution network, these components need to be designed and implemented effectively.

“…The architecture design has been developed for smart water management, which presents the detail of water conservation method By Shahanas and Shivakumar [18]. The work done by Narendran et al [19] shows the empirical water management technique based on IoT, which computerizes the water allocation, storage, and regulation of water waste. The work of Radhakrishnan and Wu [20] discusses the IoT technology for the smart water technique.…”

Abstract: The unexpected water demand has become a serious concern in the last few years. The increasing demand for water supply has posed a significant challenge for many countries around the world. Various factors, such as population growth, urbanization, and climate changes, have further exhausted water resources. Therefore, water conservation and natural resource management have become crucial factors for human survival. The proposed study presents the modeling of smart water control system based on IoT technology. The implementation of the proposed water control model is carried out using an analytical approach with cost-effective, functional modules using sensors and wireless communication system. The proposed smart water control mechanism is mainly designed for water distribution and monitoring application.

“…Furthermore, Calderwood et al state that the negative impact of overexploitation, as well as reduction in the recharge of groundwater resources, is often unknown, even after years have passed, due to data limitations [40]. In addition, groundwater resource information is strenuous to collect and use due to the lack of proper integration between the equipment deployed, irrelevant and inconsistent data as a result of lack of stationary large-scale flow rate hindrances, un-automated groundwater analysis processes, and a lack of interoperability in previous systems [177][178][179][180][181][182]. Consequently, these limitations are causing untold strains in groundwater resource management.…”

A Review of Groundwater Management Models with a Focus on IoT-Based Systems

Globally, groundwater is the largest distributed storage of freshwater and plays an important role in an ecosystem’s sustainability in addition to aiding human adaptation to both climatic change and variability. However, groundwater resources are dynamic and often change as a result of land usage, abstraction, as well as variation in climate. To solve these challenges, many conventional solutions, such as certain numerical techniques, have been proffered for groundwater modelling. The global evolution of the Internet of Things (IoT) has enhanced the culture of data gathering for the management of groundwater resources. In addition, efficient data-driven groundwater resource management relies hugely on information relating to changes in groundwater resources as well as their availability. At the moment, some studies in the literature reveal that groundwater managers lack an efficient and real-time groundwater management system which is needed to gather the required data. Additionally, the literature reveals that the existing methods of collecting data lack the required efficiency to meet computational model requirements and meet management objectives. Unlike previous surveys, which solely focussed on particular groundwater issues related to simulation and optimisation management methods, this paper seeks to highlight the current groundwater management models as well as the IoT contributions.
