Remote Monitoring of Handpumps Topical collection of papers and reports
Description:
Remote monitoring of handpumps has been under development for nearly a decade and several systems have been piloted extensively and reaching the point of being deployed on a large scale.
This is a collection of papers and reports on different systems and research teams.
RWSN does not endorse any one system but supports the general concept of using this type of technology to improve the professionalism, sustainability and service quality of rural water services.
