Abstract
Today, advanced technologies like Big Data, IoT, and Cloud Computing can provide new opportunities and applications in all sectors. In the water sector, water scarcity has become a common concern of different institutions and actors worldwide. In this context, several approaches and systems have been proposed and developed, using these technologies, allowing intelligent water resources management. Internet of Things can be used for assisting the Water Industry to collect data, manage and monitor the water infrastructures using smart devices. Big Data is a strategic technology for analyzing and interpreting collected data into valuable and helpful information for better decision making. This paper presents Big Data and Internet of Things technologies. It addresses theirs uses in some use cases such as municipal water losses, water pollution in agriculture, water Leak detection, etc., to provide new systems and innovative solutions for intelligent water resources management. Based on this study, we propose a Big Data and IoT architecture for intelligent water resources management.
