Water utilities aid in provision of clean water, which is one of the most critical resources for human life. Water utility firms rely on, both, their physical infrastructure and delivery of water to customers. As such there is tremendous opportunity to leverage geospatial technology as a solution to help water utilities achieve better performance out of their physical assets, employees and the natural resources they use for access to raw water. The seminar is a dedicated gathering for the water utility industry and offers unique opportunities to regional leaders and experts to debate and showcase technologies and best practices and identify viable solutions to address common challenges facing the Water industry.

This seminar on Water Resources would focus on:
  • Enabling water utilities to efficiently manage their assets
  • Explore the power of the latest technology to facilitate field-to-office collaboration
  • Effective planning and analysis techniques for maintenance and roll-out functions
  • Building a common operational picture by enhancing departmental collaboration and service delivery
