Further, the water pipeline leak detection systems demand for various technological advancements with the integration of computerized systems and digital survey systems for real-time monitoring of water leakage. Also, the introduction of advanced technologies such as sensors and computerized systems create enormous opportunities for the growth of the water pipeline leak detection systems market. The traditional acoustic detection sensors are being upgraded with efficient sound detection functions. The technological advancements also lead to the rising usage of Internet-of-Things (IoT) based monitoring systems and smart water metering in water management system across the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. In case of water leakage failure, the operators must have access to reliable, efficient, and actionable insights, which permit them to manage with an appropriate response. One of the most advanced technologies integrated to detect and locate water leakage points inside the pipelines is distributed acoustic sensing (DAS). DAS is an intelligent and networked solution that offers extensive support to water utilities, especially for pipeline integrity management, pre-emptive maintenance, and leak detection. The development of these advanced computerized Systems for water leakage is creating enormous opportunities for the market player to remain competitive in the market.
