Water scarcity and inefficient resource management pose significant challenges to achieving sustainability in global water supplies. The increasing demand for water, combined with the impacts of climate change, requires innovative solutions to ensure efficient water distribution and usage. This research paper explores the use of Internet of Things (IoT)-based water supply mapping for sustainable water management. By leveraging IoT technologies, such as smart sensors and real-time data collection systems, water consumption and distribution patterns can be monitored and analyzed effectively. The methodology involves deploying IoT devices to gather data on water levels, flow rates, and usage patterns across different regions. This data is then processed using advanced data analytics and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to map the water supply and detect areas of inefficiency or potential shortages. Predictive models and Machine Learning (ML) algorithms further enhance decision-making by forecasting future water demand and supply needs. The results show that IoT-enabled water mapping can significantly improve water resource allocation, reduce waste, and aid in identifying critical areas for infrastructure development. Furthermore, the integration of real-time monitoring allows for quicker response to changes in water availability, enabling proactive decision-making. In conclusion, this paper demonstrates the potential of IoT-based solutions to enhance sustainable water management efforts. The implications of these findings suggest that adopting IoT technologies could revolutionize water supply systems, paving the way for more resilient and data-driven approaches to tackling global water challenges.
