Burnaby, BC, April 24, 2019--(T-Net)--Carl Data Solutions Inc. (CSE:CRL), announced that the City of North Vancouver is piloting FlowWorks Infinitii I&I, a ground-breaking application for the wastewater management industry.

Infinitii I&I uses machine learning to provide on-going, real-time analysis of the wet weather response of sewer systems, something never before available.

I&I refers to Infiltration and Inflow. Infiltration happens when groundwater enters a sewer system through holes and cracks in manholes and sewer pipes, and inflow happens when rainfall or snowmelt enters a sewer system from sources like roofs, downspouts and storm drains.

Excessive I&I can result in sewer backups and system overflows that cause health and environmental risks.

Infinitii I&I will help the City operations group understand when and where groundwater and stormwater are entering their sewer systems. This web-based infrastructure monitoring software uses machine learning to provide analysis and statistics in seconds.

"The City of North Vancouver is happy and excited to be piloting the FlowWorks Infinitii I&I tool. I&I management is an important long-term term initiative that should be continually supported by reliable and timely monitoring data. Having real-time I&I analysis updates will be valuable for us as a small municipality. Our current team can evaluate our infrastructure and further characterize rainfall events that are driving I&I, so we can target potential problems and prioritize new projects," said Dave Matsubara, the City's infrastructure engineer.

The City of North Vancouver has used the FlowWorks platform for a decade to monitor rainfall, water flow and sanitary sewers in real-time. "We are proud to bring this exciting new machine learning tool to one of our local customers," said Greg Johnston, Carl Data's CEO. "We have consistently been successful creating in-demand tools for our municipal and engineering partners, and continue to look for ways to expand our offerings for smart cities in North America and internationally."
