SOURCE-LINKED INTELLIGENCE
High Precision Leak Detection and Localisation for Smarter Water Systems
lities: significant distribution losses, which can reach up to 30% of the water supplied across Europe. Combining proprietary ultra-low-power sensing, resilient Mesh-based communications and advanced artificial intelligence algorithms, the system enables continuous monitoring of the urban water cycle and early detection of leaks, including low-flow and persistent events that conventional technologies often miss. The core innovation lies in a cloud-based web platform that integrates multiple data sources into a unified data lake, creating a consistent and scalable foundation for advanced analytics. From this shared data environment, optimisation models, hydraulic simulations, machine-learning anomaly detection, and real-time decision-support tools can be developed and deployed to detect anomalies, localise leaks, and support automated operational actions with high accuracy. The project will advance the analytical models, integrate adaptive control mechanisms, and validate performance in relevant operational environments through pilots with water utilities.
