<strong>Task</strong> 3. <strong>Data</strong> <strong>Logger</strong> Based <strong>Telemetry</strong> Monitoring <strong>System</strong><br />

6. SYSTEM EVALUATION<br />

The system was evaluated over the last year. Selection of the system sites was successful and helped<br />

in system evaluation and in achieving planned goals. The capital cost of system installation was low,<br />

as it utilizes existing infrastructure of the telemetry network. It was selected according to the latest<br />

technologies in the fields of data acquisition, electronics, and communication systems. Moreover, the<br />

system has a low rate of power consumption, which makes its operation reliable and efficient,<br />

especially in remote areas where no main power sources are available.<br />

The performance indicators chosen for system evaluation included data accuracy and data availability.<br />

The evaluation process for all sites showed that the system achieved its planned objectives. The<br />

system is reliable, dependable, and accurate. The accuracy of the provided data was checked and it<br />

matched marbles readings for water levels and actual status of the pumps for pumping station<br />

operation. During the past year, the water distribution managers gained confidence in the system.<br />

This confidence resulted from the stable operation of the system and the continuous and accurate<br />

data provided.<br />
