Meter reading app

We rely on our smartphones every day to help us stay informed, connected, and entertained. Now, your smartphone or tablet can also be a meter-reading tool. Kamstrup Water Metering’s smart ultrasonic meters and AMR system use your smart device and Google maps to locate and read meters. When the meter has been read, the dot disappears from the map; then consumption data, including information such as leaks and water temperature, are sent straight to the billing software from the field.

Mobile metering analytics solution

Badger Meter announces the release of the BEACON® Advanced Metering Analytics (AMA) Mobile Solution. The new solution combines the intuitive BEACON AMA software suite with the power of ORION® communication technologies. The BEACON AMA software suite automatically synchronizes meter-reading field assignments and meter-reading data with the cloud-based BEACON AMA software any time an Internet connection is established. This saves utilities time and vehicle mileage as meter readers do not have to come into the office to receive assignments or deliver data. Additionally, it allows for faster viewing of water usage data, increasing utilities’ real-time decision-making abilities.
