How Does Canal Automation Work?

Watch the short animation to find out how canal automation works. In larger systems, thousands of connected devices talk to each other using Internet of Things (IoT) technology to autonomously deliver water to users without any wastage. Not only are water losses largely eliminated but water is distributed equitably to all users and delivery flexibility and reliability is improved. A flexible and reliable supply service is needed for farmers to better meet the needs of their crops and make more efficient use of water at the farm level.
