Flood prevention and sewerage are highly mechanised and automated services that utilise the latest high-performance computerised controllers and IT networks. For a growing number of public water authorities, the versiondog data management system from AUVESY has significantly improved the process of keeping track of the associated data. Although the primary purpose of versiondog is usually to provide change and data management, it is also helping German water authorities fulfil the requirements of the country's IT Security Act 2015, especially with regard to ICS systems.
People do not tend think of sewerage services as being particularly high-tech, but that is far from the reality. The German partner water associations Emschergenossenschaft and Lippeverband (EGLV) operate 59 sewage treatment plants, 344 pumping stations and 411 drain and rainwater treatment facilities and detention basins. Most of them incorporate automated systems that are networked to allow remote monitoring and control. Since 2009, all control devices used in EGLV facilites are managed by versiondog. Currently, their total number of automated control device projects is around 3,500. Add to that the parameter data and settings of numerous frequency converters, pressure sensors and level sensors and that brings the total number of versiondog components in use at EGLV to around 5,000.
