To accompany this announcement, Badger Meter has released a video, available here:
The City of Galveston, Texas, is using AMI network upgrades to move beyond the meter, managing water and wastewater pressure, quality and water supply across the island. As challenges were identified, solution architects from Badger Meter worked with city staff to deploy water quality and pressure monitoring technology for a holistic view of the water network.
Sensors and monitoring devices are deployed at strategic sites to capture the chemistry, clarity and disinfection levels of the water supply. This data is fed directly to BEACON® SaaS and viewable alongside pressure and consumption data. Operators can utilize the near real-time data from BEACON to dose chemicals accurately and flush lines proactively.
BlueEdge has furthered system extensibility in Galveston, delivering:
Wherever your water flows, BlueEdge can help improve operations with connected devices that deliver valuable insights. Backed by a supportive global team with best-in-class service, BlueEdge brings confidence to operations and gives you an edge on water management.
