Transforming Water Networks: District Metering Analysis (DMA) for Resilient Operations

Transforming Water Networks: District Metering Analysis for Resilient Operations

Water utilities use District Metering Analysis (DMA) as a fundamental tool for monitoring and managing water distribution networks. DMA involves dividing the network into smaller districts or zones and installing flow meters to measure the flow of water into and out of each zone. By analysing flow data from DMA, utilities can identify leaks, assess water consumption patterns and make informed decisions about infrastructure improvements and resource allocation.

This can overload the wastewater system during periods of heavy rain or storm events, leading to the release of untreated wastewater into the environment. It also increases the risk of cross-contamination of drinking water – though this is rare.
