Abstract

Examples of trends in water management systems under influence of modern technologiesReliable and timely information about the current and future condition of water enables an efficient management of water management systems. Advantages and challenges of the use of modern technologies in the collection, analysis, and integration of data, are presented in this paper by means of several examples of water management systems. It is shown how advanced technologies demonstrate a pronounced efficiency in accurate monitoring of various environmental phenomena and in increasing safety of water resources and facilities, while also enabling low water and energy consumption, with simultaneous increase in water quality.

Latest Developments in Sustainable Water Management

“…Al-Saady et al [29] also showed that the use of remotely sensed data (ASTER GDEM) and GIS techniques (ArcSWAT and other GIS tools) is more appropriate, precise, and economic for extracting drainage network and morphometric parameters of river basins, compared to traditional methods. GIS techniques are excellent tools for hydrologic analyses of drainage networks and for the high-accuracy drainage basin mapping [29], [30].…”
