Sobre o evento
The objective of the roundtable is to deliberate and explore the use of AI-enabled monitoring approaches, including digital twins and sensor-based systems, to address water quality and quantity challenges and support sustainable water resource management. The discussions will foster mutual learning by bringing together diverse perspectives on how the AI-enabled tools can be leveraged to improve monitoring efficiency, generate data, reduce costs, and support scalable and accessible solutions in developing countries like India. The session will also facilitate shared understanding of key challenges, including financial needs, data availability, training needs, and model limitations, and probable solutions for them.
