AI in Water Management – Rising to Meet New Challenges

The eBook titled AI in Water Management: Rising to Meet New Challenges by Autodesk delves into the transformative role of artificial intelligence (AI) in addressing the pressing issues faced by the global water industry.

With projections indicating a 40% shortfall in freshwater resources by 2030 and escalating challenges such as aging infrastructure, increasing energy costs, and climate-induced flooding, the need for innovative solutions has never been more critical.

Autodesk's AI-powered tools are at the forefront of this transformation, offering capabilities that enhance decision-making, streamline operations, and promote sustainability. The eBook highlights two key innovations:

• Machine Learning Deluge Tool in InfoDrainage: This tool leverages AI to predict flood maps swiftly and accurately, enabling engineers to design more resilient drainage systems and mitigate flood risks effectively.
• Integration of Info360 Asset with VAPAR.Solutions: Combining AI and machine learning, this integration automates the analysis of CCTV footage from sewer pipelines, significantly reducing the time required for condition assessments and facilitating proactive maintenance planning.

By harnessing these AI-driven solutions, water professionals can achieve better-informed decisions, improved project delivery, and reduced operational costs—ultimately contributing to more sustainable and resilient water infrastructure.
