Solution to City Infrastructure Management though Early Detection.

Municipalities will detect leaks and fix them before the consequences have time to multiply into massive repair costs. Early detection minimizes the annual cost of damage from leaking or frozen pipes which can often lead to preventable road and property repair costs. A fire hydrant insert that can be retrofitted into new and existing infrastructure in order to remotely provide municipalities with useful insights into the city’s water system. Throughout any given year, a city’s water system will have to deal with freezing water supplies, equipment-damaging high and low pressure transients, and leaking mains. The application will anticipate these damaging conditions and provide alerts in a timely fashion by using fire hydrants as windows into the underground water supply network.
Can this be implemented for other Assets as well?
This is a amazing idea. I hope it comes to fruition!!
