Small City Water Main Leak Predictor

A basic, low-cost sensor system and ML model designed for small municipal water systems to predict the probability and location of water main breaks before they occur.

🎯The Problem

Small towns lack the budget for sophisticated acoustic monitoring but suffer high costs and service disruption from unexpected pipe failures.

💡The Solution

Simple pressure/flow sensors placed at key junction points; ML analyzes pressure anomalies (micro-spikes) to predict stress failures.

👥Target Users

Small Municipal Water Utilities, City Public Works Departments, Rural Water Districts
