Data Overload
Water and wastewater operators are facing data overload as the amount of water quality and operational records continues to grow. Handling this vast amount of water and wastewater data manually, in filing cabinets, with spreadsheets, with in-house databases, or with internally developed computer applications diverts staff from other important duties.
WaterTrax clients have migrated from expensive manual handling to cost-effective automated handling of all water or wastewater data from all sources.
Read about some of the benefits that WaterTrax clients are experiencing.

The over riding value of WaterTrax is in the consolidation of all HRWC's water quality data and immediate accessibility. "I like the fact that staff come in each morning and clear out the lab reports," says Reid Campbell, Manager of Plant Operations. "It's become routine, like clearing out your e-mail. There's a good discipline in place."

Loyalist Township
Facing stringent new regulatory requirements for monitoring and reporting, the Township implemented the WaterTrax Utility Service. "We recognized that the amount of water quality information was on the rise, and were looking for ways to manage it without diverting staff time from more important work," says Frank Reinholz, P.Eng., Assistant Township Engineer.
Loyalist is making extensive use of WaterTrax's Utility File Upload feature to integrate existing data collection procedures with new data management practices. Water quality and plant operating information is collected monthly in Excel spreadsheets at the treatment plants, then uploaded to WaterTrax. "The spreadsheet upload is running smoothly, and has allowed us to improve our records management practices without changing the procedures of our field staff," says Mr. Reinholz. "The integrated database means that we only have one place to go to find up-to-date information from the labs, the field and the plants."
