SWIM/WATERiD IAB
The WATERiD Industry Advisory Board
has now been established
Founding Gold Members from the
industry, namely Applied Felts, Arcadis,
Echologics, and Reline America
Founding Member Utilities, the Town of
Blacksburg, VA, the City of Lynchburg,
VA, and Aurora Water, Colorado.
Partnership with Benjamin Media for Annual
WATERiD and UIM conference at Virginia
Tech Research Center, Arlington, VA
Benjamin Media will also act as a media and
publishing partner for WATERiD
WATER infrastructure DATABASE Extension (WATERiDEx)
To permit wastewater and drinking water utilities to easily
share their experiences and lessons learned regarding
above-ground water infrastructure assets, we are
proposing the expansion of existing WATERiD knowledge
database. The expanded national database will be called
Water infrastructure Database Extension (WATERiDEx).
WATERiDEx is envisioned to be
“a Living Knowledge Database for above-ground
assets” addressing condition assessment, renewal
engineering, performance, and cost related to
wastewater and drinking water treatment facilities.
WATER infrastructure DATABASE PLUS (WATERiD+)
To truly implement advanced asset management, a dramatic
evolution of the water industry as a whole is required.
A centralized database to house the homogenous, time
dependent data from different sources is crucial in enabling
local, state, and federal governments to employ the advanced
infrastructure asset management strategies.
WATERiD+ is envisioned to be
“a Living Database Platform for Advanced Water
Infrastructure Asset Management” addressing all three
major management levels including strategic, tactical,
and operational that will assist utilities of all sizes to
sustain targeted level of service
Partnership Program:
• Media Partner – Benjamin Media, etc.
• Associations – NASSCO, ASCE, etc.
• Funding Agencies – WERF, EPA, etc.
