The early detection of leaks in water supply pipelines and water theft prevention is an economically important issue not only for Latvian water utilities. However, monitoring and control of underground infrastructure presents a severe challenge. In recent years, wireless sensor networks are applied for Automated Meters Reading (AMR) and Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI). In this paper, authors propose a particular wireless sensor networks solution for water distribution network monitoring system. The case study of solution successfully piloted at water distribution networks in Latvian city Ventspils is described.
