Smart monitoring of infrastructure asset health and performance
Development of smart and robust monitoring technologies, together with a comprehensive examination of the deterioration of, and maintenance management systems for, drinking water pipelines in the context of infrastructure aging, is essential to ensure long and trouble-free operations.
The SMART-Infra project will accelerate this digital transformation in drinking water distribution by investigating which data to measure and how to manage this data. Monitoring technologies will be evaluated with respect to infrastructure health and performance and these technologies will be enhanced with custom AI tools. SMART-Infra’s vision is to support drinking water producers to:
- assess their infrastructure state
- predict disruptions of the network due to material failure or decreased water quality, and
- select the optimum material for a given application.
SMARTInfra supports the achievement of the UN sustainability goals at the water utilities by contributing to the quality, reliability, sustainability and resilience of the infrastructure by upgrading technology capabilities and increased resource-use efficiency.
