Delhi Launches AI-Driven Centre to Monitor Water Supply and Detect Leaks
Delhi inaugurated the Intelligent Command and Control Centre (IC3) to enhance water supply monitoring and reduce losses. The system integrates data from smart meters, GIS, SCADA, and GPS-enabled vehicles on a digital dashboard, using AI and digital-twin technology to predict pipeline bursts and low-pressure areas. Officials can track repairs and complaints more efficiently. Delhi aims to reduce non-revenue water from 45% to 15%, addressing leaks, unauthorized use, and metering errors. The system's predictive accuracy remains to be seen.
