Can you imagine cities like Shanghai or Melbourne running out of water within the next 20 years? It's a frightening thought, but with an average household consuming almost 130 litres of water per person, we must cut our usage by half to keep the water flowing for all.\nIn this episode, Steve McCorry, CTO of Creative EC, shares his insights into making water metering smarter with data and AI. Join us as we explore how combining consumption data with machine learning techniques can help predict and prevent leaks and broken pipes and even warn when water quality becomes harmful. Discover how smart water meters are revolutionizing water conservation and paving the way for a more sustainable future.\n\xa0\n#reducewater #stopleaks #waterdatainsights #wetalkiot\n\xa0\nSummary of this week's episode:\nWarning: this episode may ruin beer for you.\n02:34\xa0\xa0 What does Creative EC do?\n03:31\xa0\xa0 Why we need to reduce our water usage\n05:20\xa0\xa0 How can water metering help reduce water usage?\n07:46\xa0\xa0 How does Waterfall work?\n10:21\xa0\xa0 How do companies benefit from this?\n12:07\xa0\xa0 Surprising use cases\n15:41\xa0\xa0 The future: predicting water events with AI\n18:27\xa0\xa0 Open ecosystems are the key to adoption\n19:52\xa0\xa0 The matter standard will be interesting for water meters\n20:55\xa0\xa0 The common myth\n\xa0\nShow notes:\nSteve McCorry: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevefmccorry/\nWaterfall: https://waterfallbeyondsmart.com/\n\xa0\nInteresting facts about water usage in Europe:\nWater use in Europe \u2014 Quantity and quality face big challenges: https://www.eea.europa.eu/signals/signals-2018-content-list/articles/water-use-in-europe-2014\nSome Cities Suffer Enormous Water Losses Every Year: https://www.statista.com/chart/4528/some-cities-suffer-enormous-water-losses-every-year/\nAnnual industrial water demand worldwide in 2010 and 2050: https://www.statista.com/statistics/1116382/yearly-industrial-water-demand-globally-by-region/\n\xa0\nAbout Avnet Silica:\nThis podcast is brought to you by Avnet Silica - The Engineers of Evolution.All podcast episodes can be found here: https://www.avnet.com/wps/portal/silica/resources/podcast/\nSoftweb Solutions: https://www.softwebsolutions.com/\nSoftware and Service: https://www.avnet.com/wps/portal/silica/solutions/software-services/\nYou can connect with us on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/silica-an-avnet-company/.
