Towards a smart water city: A comprehensive review of applications, data requirements, and communication technologies for integrated management

Smart cities are an innovate concept for managing urban to enhance sustainability and increase quality of life citizens. Although water infrastructure (UWI) performs important functions in a city (e.g., supply drinking water), information communication technologies (ICT) system-wide management network-based UWI not yet widely deployed. Therefore, this review summarises first both existing potential applications related UWI, characterised by different spatial temporal resolution measurement control data. Second, comprehensive analysis ICT is provided, which extended with exemplary the field. The reveals that coordination between intended application usable technology required realise efficient monitoring network field networks. To overcome limitation, detailed framework developed, can be used researcher, operators, stakeholder identify suitable or determine possible system. Following, applicability demonstrated selected examples. As also indicates, integrated approach towards smart requires combination satisfy all specifications.
