Data Science for Water Utilities: Data as a Source of Value

This addition to the Data Science Series introduces the principles of data science and R to the singular needs of water professionals. The book provides unique data and examples relevant to managing water utility and is sourced from the author's extensive experience.

Data Science for Water Utilities: Data as a Source of Value is an applied, practical guide that shows water professionals how to use data science to solve urban water management problems. Content develops through three case studies. The first looks at analysing water quality to ensure public health. The second considers customer feedback. The final case study introduces smart meter data. The guide flows easily from basic principles through code that, with each case study, increases in complexity.

Readers will be familiar with analysing data but do not need coding experience to use this book. The title will be essential reading for anyone seeking a practical introduction to data science and creating value with R.
