Water is arguably our most precious resource, and one we simply cannot live without. Utilities today are facing unprecedented water shortages due to multiple factors: drought, increasing population needs, and increasing agricultural demands. It is especially important for utilities to have the proper tools to collect information, monitor, and report the successes and challenges of water conservation efforts.
Many of you probably work at utilities that have some sort of program established for water conservation. ArcGIS can be used to easily share the water conservation information your utility already has to facilitate collaboration and conservation awareness. Regardless of what stage your organization’s conservation program is in, the tools provided by ArcGIS for Water Utilities can be leveraged to increase awareness and improve conservation efforts.
