Water Quality System for Local Council
Adding embedded leaflet maps with geospatial data and mapping layers into the system allows the business to see where the water, waste testing, and inspections were being carried out and where these resulted in non-compliance with set limits or contracts.
Overall, the digitization of the water and waste services provided:
• Automatic monitoring, notifications, and reporting to customers.
• Improved services and relationships with trade waste customers and more accurate billing for the services provided.
• More accurate management of the quality and supply of water, removing the need for water restrictions.
• Easy access to AI, geospatial tools, IoT gateways, API management and integration, CRM functionality, mobility, analytics, and web services.
