This article details the design, implementation, and deployment of the Wireless Water Sentinel project in Singapore, an integrated, end‐to‐end system featuring node‐level acquisition and transmission of data as well as server‐based archiving, processing, and visualization of data. The system provides real‐time hydraulic and water quality measurements that complement the existing supervisory control and data acquisition system and facilitates on‐line hydraulic modeling and support for operational decisions. The network has been used in a real‐world test bed to examine burst and leak detection approaches using pressure and acoustic data. The implementation of real‐time, in‐network monitoring has shown great potential to improve operational efficiency of the day‐to‐day running of large urban water distribution systems. As water infrastructure worldwide continues to age, becoming increasingly prone to costly breaks and interruptions in service, this type of monitoring and analysis can help ensure continued delivery of an essential resource.
