Operations
Operators, on-call staff and technicians
- Real-time status of equipment and facilities
- Process variables: levels, pressures, flows
- Alarms with date, time and acknowledgement
- Historical data to review what happened and when

Water and Infrastructure Monitoring for Government and Public Services
We connect equipment and centralize data so your team can supervise facilities, spot deviations and make decisions with up-to-date information.
Drinking water and wastewater
Your entire water network, visible in one place
Wells, pumping stations and storage are often spread out and checked through site rounds, phone calls or spreadsheets. We bring that information into a single view so your team knows what is happening without visiting every site.
Wells, pumping stations, tanks and cisterns
The status of every facility on a shared screen, with its location and key variables.
Level, pressure and flow
Up-to-date values from existing or newly added measurements, depending on each site's instrumentation.
Pump and equipment status
Running, stopped, fault, run hours and other operating variables to anticipate problems.
Alarms and communication loss
Alerts for out-of-range levels, equipment faults or sites that stop reporting, with a record of every event.
Historical data and reports
Data stored over time to analyze consumption, performance and trends, and to answer questions with evidence.
Existing meters and systems
Integration of data from meters, control panels and systems already in use, where their technology allows, without replacing what works.
About leaks: comparing flows, levels and consumption helps detect behavior that may indicate a leak and prioritize where to inspect. How far that detection goes depends on the available data and instrumentation; it does not replace leak detection and location work in the field.
Infrastructure monitoring
The same approach for other operational facilities
Remote supervision also applies to infrastructure tied to the day-to-day operation of the service.
Stormwater pumping and drainage
Pump status and levels at stations that must respond when it rains.
Reservoirs and level points
Level tracking at reservoirs, channels and distributed measurement points.
Distributed facilities and equipment
Availability and faults of technical equipment spread across different locations.
Electrical, energy and environmental variables
Power consumption, energy and environmental conditions that affect operations.
Our work here is technical supervision, equipment integration and data management.
Useful information for every team
The people who run the facilities and the people who manage the service need to see different things. The system is organized for both.
Management
Mayors, departments, managers and boards
- Consolidated service indicators
- Periodic performance and consumption reports
- Information to prioritize maintenance
- Data to support phased investments
Tools proven in industry
We use established industrial platforms. What matters is not the tool but the problem it solves.
SCADA for supervision
Operator screens, alarms and per-user access control. We work with Ignition, which lets you add sites and users as the system grows.
Historical data
Recording of variables and events over time, the basis for trends, reports and later analysis.
Data integration
Connection to PLCs, field devices, databases and existing systems through standard industrial protocols such as OPC UA and Modbus.
Austral builds these solutions in demanding industrial environments. We bring the same engineering practice to water and infrastructure facilities. Ignition in Argentina · Industrial integration
About field equipment: our focus is software and integration. Needs for sensors, connectivity, control panels or field installation are defined during the site survey and coordinated with the appropriate suppliers or specialists.
How we get started
You don't need a large project to begin. Scope is defined around your organization's reality, and you can start with a single facility or a specific problem.
Site survey
We review facilities, existing systems, connectivity and your team's needs.
Initial scope or pilot
We agree on a focused first scope with clear, verifiable goals.
Integration and commissioning
We connect equipment and data, configure screens, alarms and historical data, and put the system into service.
Training, support and expansion
We train your staff, support daily operation and add sites or functions in phases.
Each phase leaves a system in use and the information needed to decide the next step.
Let's start by understanding your operation
