COVID is helping propel the water industry toward digital solutions that enhance both public health and resiliency. Wastewater-based epidemiology is one technology that can be digitized by integrating epidemiological, hydraulic, water quality, and viral signal data in a web-based platform, thereby providing actionable information for public health officials. As sewage surveillance programs are increasingly implemented around the globe, we are working to design optimal digital approaches for disease mitigation using wastewater data. Robust remote monitoring capabilities—another digital solution for water utilities—are critical for enabling flexibility to adapt to changing demand while ensuring continuity of water services. If based on the right technology solutions, remote monitoring for water utilities can help manage strains on infrastructure and personnel as well as allow proactive management of water systems. These digital solutions can help future-proof the water industry as well as reinforce its role as public health steward in a post-COVID world.
