Asset Management and Water Quality Monitoring in Power BI - Wannon Water Case Studies
Asset Management and Water Quality Monitoring in Power BI - Wannon Water Case Studies

In November, we were joined by Aaron Smith and Nerida Campbell from Wannon Water based out of Warrnambool in Victoria. Aaron presented on the Asset Management Power BI report, which provides an overview on the status of Wannon Water's infrastructure that is used to manage water supply and wastewater treatment across the region. Nerida presented on the Water Reclamation Plant (WRP) Power BI report, which gives Wannon Water visibility on the WRP systems, to ensure that treatment levels are meeting compliance requirements. It was a fantastic session with great engagement from across the BI and water industries, and we hope you enjoy revisiting the recording here.
