Water quality data from s::can sensors in the Barcelona sewer system

Within the frame of the SCOREwater project, BCASA and s::can installed water quality sensors in the sewer system in three neighbourhoods with different socio-economic characteristics (Poblenou, Sant Gervasi and Carmel) in the City Of Barcelona. To prevent vandalism, the exact location of the sensors cannot be disclosed. The sensors are monitoring physico-chemical parameters in the sewer network. These data can be used for multiple purposes, both related to predictive maintenance of the sewer network and life style analysis of inhabitants of Barcelona: a better operation and maintenance of the sewer network minimizing odor episodes and corrosion from H2S try to prevent blocking from sediments detect spills into the sewer system from a construction site or illegal discharge learn population habits from analyzing the waste water from the three different neighborhoods to learn about how the inhabitants use pharmaceuticals or other compounds (perhaps abusing of it).
