Training material: Presentation of Urban Water Cycle Observatory

The Urban Water Cycle Observatory is a data visualization instrument for monitoring and communicating performance, supporting urban planning and decision-making. It follows the motto: “To know so to reduce”. The Urban Water Cycle Observatory is divided in two complementary tools:

1. A public access tool, with open data information of the water and wastewater city dimensions (top-down approach)

2. A private access tool, for individual entities integrate and analyse, via a set of data analytics, the water consumption data of their facilities (bottom-up approach).
