Managing water resources in a changing climate requires decisions that balance safety, cost, resilience, and stakeholder expectations. Every water authority faces the same challenge: make the right operational and investment choices, at the right time, using data scattered across sensors, models, teams, and external agencies. A decision made too early can waste resources; a decision made too late can lead to flooding, drought impacts, or service interruptions.
To reduce uncertainty and build confidence, organizations must base key decisions on a unified view of what is happening now and what could happen next:
Data Streams — Real-time telemetry, radar rainfall, forecasts, SCADA, groundwater levels, and satellite data continuously ingested into a harmonized data layer.
Multi-Model Simulation Chains — Hydrology, hydraulics, water-quality, drought, and flood-risk models connected to run automatically or on demand.
Scenario & Impact Analysis — Tools to compare operational strategies, infrastructure options, climate scenarios, and emergency response plans.
Stakeholder Decision Workflows — Transparent dashboards, KPIs, and decision-support logic shared across teams, departments, and external partners.
A Life cycle Collect–Detect–Decide Framework for Managing Water Complexity
Data Pipelines to Collect and Harmonize
- Ingests any hydro-environmental data (sensors, radar, forecasts, models) into a unified lakehouse-based environment.
- Cleans, transforms, and tags all datasets for real-time and historical analysis
Advanced Analytics and Modelling to Detect Risks
Runs multi-model simulations to detect flood risks, drought stress, contamination pathways, or network bottlenecks.
Performs anomaly detection on sensor networks, rainfall patterns, and system performance.
Surfaces early warning signals from complex terrain, upstream catchments, and urban drainage systems.
Decision Logic and DSS Tools to Act with Confidence
Recommends optimal actions under uncertainty (pump/valve control, storage allocation, emergency routing).
Prioritize investment scenarios with multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA).
Automates operational workflows with user-defined rules and adaptive triggers.
This creates a true Decision Shield that reduces operational risk, prevents service outages, and aligns all stakeholders under one trusted view of the system.
Solution Advantages
Improves operational reliability with early detection of emerging flood, drought, or quality risks
Reduces emergency response time through automated simulations and clear decision pathways
Achieves cost savings by optimizing pumping, storage, maintenance, and infrastructure sequencing
Shortens planning cycles using shared data, repeatable analyses, and model-driven evidence
Strengthens stakeholder alignment with a single source of truth across agencies, consultants, and decision-makers
Enhances long-term resilience through scenario exploration and climate-informed planning
