LoRaWAN Automatic Water Metering in the Community of Kato Moni, Nicosia, Cyprus.
Project Details.
Customer: Community Council of Kato Moni
Project Partner: Tasos Kouzoupos Ltd
Challenge: The Community Council of Kato Moni wanted to upgrade it water distribution network by deploying a telemetry system that would provide them real time access to the water consumption of the community habitants, targeting reducing water waste, maximize its income from water charging and reduce operational cost from manually collecting the water consumption data.
Solution Provided
Initially we established a LoRaWAN Network at the area by deploying one Kerlink Wirnet iStation Outdoor LoRaWAN Gateway. This provided the required LoRaWAN coverage for the communication with the field sensors.
Our partnering company Tasos Kouzoupos Ltd, the distributor of DIEHL Metering in Cyprus, deployed 50 DIEHL Water Meters equipped with DIEHL’s LoRaWAN module. The module has the ability to collect the water consumption measurement from the water meter and transmit it through LoRaWAN to our cloud platform.
We developed a post-data processing and analysis that automatically sends by a email a water consumption report to the council the last day of every quarter.
