Pulse | Water Management

Key outcome

This solution lets you detect potential water distribution network vulnerabilities and monitor water quality remotely.

Reduce water loss

Detect leaks early by identifying anomalies in distribution networks and detecting inefficiencies that would otherwise go unnoticed. Continuous monitoring helps utilities maintain system integrity and protect valuable resources.

Quality indicator monitoring

Track key water quality parameters over time to detect emerging risks or abnormal patterns. Consistent monitoring supports regulatory compliance and enables data-driven decision-making for treatment and resource planning.

Prioritise repairs

Prioritise infrastructure repairs by risk level to focus maintenance teams where intervention is most urgent. Data-driven prioritisation ensures resources are allocated efficiently and preventative action replaces reactive response.

The challenge

Water infrastructure leaks waste critical resources, increase operational costs, and can escalate into disruptive failures.

As networks age and expand, identifying hidden vulnerabilities across vast underground pipelines becomes increasingly complex. Traditional leak detection — from physical inspections to customer complaints — is reactive, localised, and inefficient. Smaller leaks can persist undetected for long periods, while deterioration remains invisible until rupture.

At the same time, water quality monitoring often relies on sparse sampling points and fixed sensors, providing limited spatial coverage and delayed visibility of emerging risks. Without continuous, system-wide intelligence, utilities struggle to prioritise investigations, prevent losses, and maintain consistent oversight across large, distributed networks.

Our solution

The Water Management Pulse delivers continuous, system-wide intelligence across both pipeline integrity and water quality.

Using satellite-based soil moisture analysis, terrain modelling, and infrastructure proximity analytics, the system detects persistent moisture anomalies near buried pipelines and identifies leak-risk hotspots. Machine learning models rank network segments by probability of failure, incorporating historical patterns and environmental conditions.

At the same time, we can help track key quality indicators through an intuitive dashboard, enabling teams to monitor anomalies, configure thresholds, and generate evidence for compliance and reporting.

Outputs are delivered via the SPAI platform, exportable reports, or API integration — enabling proactive intervention, regulatory transparency, and data-driven resource allocation across the network.

How It Works

Select the assets

Once you select the area or asset, we customise the solution for you. At this stage, we collect satellite data (like Copernicus), and integrate additional relevant data sources, such as geospatial, economic, weather, or proprietary data.

Data processing via SPAI

SPAI supports data collection and processing by using automated workflows and in-house models, with human-led quality checks to ensure consistent results across sites and time.

Pulses deliver the insights

The processed data is translated into structured intelligence: indicators, trends, actionable alerts that move you beyond static maps. At this stage you receive precise indicators that pinpoint exactly where to focus your attention to prevent outages or damage.

Case study: Advancing water monitoring with satellite intelligence

To strengthen reservoir monitoring and support data-driven decision-making, Aigües de Manresa partnered with Earthpulse to integrate satellite-based water quality analytics into its operations.

Earthpulse deployed a satellite-based water monitoring system using high-resolution Sentinel-2 imagery from the European Union’s Copernicus programme. By combining Earth Observation data with AI-driven analytics, we transformed raw imagery into structured, actionable water quality indicators. The solution delivers scalable, continuous monitoring to support faster and more informed water management decisions.
