Combined Sydney Produce Market, Sydney Flower Market and Sydney Growers Market comprise more the 700 businesses selling fresh fruit, vegetables and flowers. Sydney Markets Limited covers 42 hectares and operates 24/7.
It is essential that water leaks are detected early to avoid infrastructure damage or to interrupt the operations of the Markets, and not to mention the potentially large water bills.
Since 2007 Watersave (now SUMS) has provided Sydney Markets with the platform to manage the site by installing 23 data loggers.
Data can be regularly retrieved from the SUMS portal, which provides alerts for water usage in excess of the baselines set for the site. SUMS monitors the Markets site and identifies if a data fault or upgrade to the equipment/software is required.
