  • Green Roofs:

    EXTENSIVE, INTENSIVE, SEMI-INTENSIVE; Each type of green roof offers distinct advantages and requires different levels of maintenance, data analytics, automation, and monitoring investment.

  • Green Walls:

    LIVING WALL, VERTICAL GARDEN, BIO WALL; Green walls are not only functional elements that contribute to sustainable development but also transform plain surfaces into vibrant, living pieces of green architecture.

  • Storm Water:

    RAIN HARVESTING, DETENTION & RETENTION, REUSE; Effective stormwater management helps to mitigate flooding risks in urban development by enhancing water efficiency, supporting biodiversity, and improving the quality of urban spaces.

  • Adaptation to Environmental Changes

    With changing weather patterns and environmental conditions, soil moisture sensors enable turf managers to adapt their watering practices dynamically, ensuring that the turf is maintained optimally throughout the year.

  • Optimized Water Use

    By monitoring the soil moisture levels in different areas of the field, turf managers can apply water more efficiently, ensuring that the turf receives the right amount of water at the right time. This prevents both under-watering, which can lead to dry, unhealthy turf, and over-watering, which can cause waterlogging, encourage disease, and waste water resources.

  • Data-Driven Decision Making

    Soil moisture sensors provide objective, data-driven insights that guide decision-making. This empirical approach to turf management allows for more accurate and informed decisions compared to relying solely on visual inspections or standard watering schedules.

  • Replacement Insurance:

    Typically treated with the utmost care and reverence, given the high-cost and/or irreplaceable nature. Protecting and preserving these plants can involve specialized horticultural practices, combined with data analytics and real-time PLANT-ENVIRONMENTAL-TRACKING using IoT devices.

  • Aesthetic Value:

    Often considered to have exceptional aesthetic appeal due to size, shape, color, or other visual qualities, make these plants a centerpiece in gardens or landscapes. ENVIRONMENTAL TRACKING is a key element in maintaining consistent growth and plant and uniformity.

  • Real-Time Monitoring:

    Utilizing sensors and IoT (Internet of Things) devices, building water analytics enables the real-time tracking of water flow and consumption in different parts of a building, such as restrooms, kitchens, and heating systems.

  • Leak Detection:

    By analyzing water usage patterns, these systems can quickly identify anomalies that may indicate leaks, allowing for prompt repairs to prevent water waste and property damage.

  • Data Analysis and Reporting:

    Advanced analytics tools process the collected data to provide insights into water usage patterns, helping facility managers and property owners understand where and how water is used most.

  • Cost and Resource Management:

    By optimizing water usage, building water analytics contributes to significant cost savings and promotes sustainable water management practices, especially in areas facing water scarcity or stringent environmental regulations.

  • Sustainability and Compliance:

    These systems can help buildings meet regulatory requirements and environmental standards, as well as contribute to green building certifications like LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design)

  • User Behavior Influence:

    Detailed water usage data can also be used to influence user behavior, encouraging conservation and efficient water use through awareness and targeted initiatives.

  • Idea:

    A Water Balance involves the strategic placement of sensors within a building's existing water infrastructure to monitor and analyze water consumption in greater detail than what is typically recorded by the main building water meter. This approach offers a comprehensive view of water usage across different areas of the building, such as HVAC, manufacturing, bathrooms, kitchens, living areas, etc.

  • Concept:

    The core concept of a Water Balance is to ensure that the total water usage recorded by these additional sensors (submeters) aligns with the data from the main water meter. This comparison helps in identifying discrepancies, which can be indicative of issues like leaks or inefficiencies in the water system.

  • Insights:

    By tracking water usage at a more granular level, facility managers can gain valuable insights into how water is distributed and used within the building. This data not only aids in efficient water management but also helps in reducing costs associated with water usage. The practice is particularly beneficial for large buildings or complexes where water usage is high, and small inefficiencies can lead to significant waste and increased costs.

  • Real-time Monitoring and Early Detection

    Continuously monitor various parameters like water pressure, and flow rate, within a plumbing system to detect anomalies indicative of a leak. Early detection is key to preventing significant damage and higher repair costs.

  • Integration with Automatic Shut-off Systems

    Wireless leak detection sensors can be integrated with automatic shut-off valves. When a leak is detected, these valves can automatically close to stop the flow of water, thereby limiting the impact of the leak. This is particularly beneficial in unmonitored or remote locations.

  • Automated Alerts and Notifications

    Wireless sensors can automatically send alerts to the relevant personnel or systems. These alerts can be sent via email, text, or direct integration with a building management system. Quick notifications allow for immediate action, reducing the potential damage caused by the leak.
