摘要: Driven by the information age, a paradigm shift is starting to occur in urban water planning and management field, mainly due introduction of advanced metering communications technologies. This chapter explores potential role intelligent systems, smart application resultant data sets for future built environment. Intelligent meters essentially perform three functions; they automatically electronically capture, collect communicate up-to-date usage readings on real-time (or nearly real-time) basis. To translate this into useful information, comprehensive system required, which integrates high-resolution (e.g., 0.01?l; 5?sec), communication technologies GPRS) order provide how, when where being consumed customer business. seeks promote uptake systems examining benefits drivers of, barriers to, metering. Specifically, it presents applicable examples can significantly enhance current activities terms citywide planning, infrastructure demand satisfaction.
