Transforming Water Management: Telemetry with Aquameter Goes Live
Image recognition powers remote reading of meters to support billing automation for water utilities.
Montbonnot, France, 25 March, 2025 -- Today, IoTize announced the first deployment of Aquameter with Mirahtec in Senegal. Through Q1 2025, Mirahtec field tested Aquameter for their telemetry and billing solution for water utilities. Following those successful field tests, Mirahtec's customer launched remote telemetry with the first installations of Aquameter with end-customers today.
Aquameter is a sensor and radio retrofit for mechanical water and gas meters. It uses image recognition to read the display of a mechanical meter and extract the value that is then transmitted to a supervisory platform. Aquameter can be retrofit to deployed mechanical water meters easily and without service interuption. It is installed on top of water meters and is configured using a mobile app and Near Field Communication. After configuration, Aquameter wakes up periodically to read the meter and transmit it over an LPWAN. The sensor operates on battery power for up to 15 years before the battery needs to be changed.
Aquameter is a B-to-B product for utilities and large facilities. It adapts by simple configuration to any cloud telemetry and billing platform.
