These modules recorded individual pulses from the water meter over time and sent the information via GSM modems to an aggregate database. A dedicated acquisition system automatically recalculated the readings from the water meters and visualized them in the form of time series of temporary flows. These values were then aggregated into 15-min and 1-h series stored in the pooled database. Measurements of water consumption by end users lasted from January 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021. Verified and stored in the database, the six-month time series of hourly water consumption by individual end users provided input for further numerical analyses.
