CUTTING-EDGE TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATIONS
In Lyon, Veolia is working to implement cutting-edge technological innovations for data management and water-quality traceability. The water distribution network will be equipped with more than 6,000 sensors that monitor water quality and detect leaks in real time.
REAL-TIME ANALYSIS
Millions of pieces of data will be recorded and sent to an integrated operations center, where they will be analyzed and immediately used to perform work on infrastructure and in the field, to the direct benefit of users.
Customers will be able to track their water use online and receive an alert if their consumption rises to abnormal levels. In very cold weather users will also receive alerts about the risks of freezing so that they can take appropriate measures.
