Hidden infrastructure risks rarely start at the surface.

Join us for an upcoming webinar exploring how L‑band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is helping dam and levee operators identify early indicators of seepage, internal erosion, and other geotechnical risks before visible signs appear.

This session will highlight how satellite-based monitoring and AI-driven analytics are helping teams:

➡️ Detect subsurface soil moisture anomalies earlier
➡️ Prioritize inspections and field investigations more efficiently
➡️ Strengthen long-term infrastructure resilience
➡️ Improve operational decision-making across large, hard-to-access systems

The webinar will also feature a real-world case study from a Texas water district using satellite-driven monitoring to support dam safety and proactive risk management.

If you’re focused on dam safety, levee monitoring, infrastructure resilience, or asset management, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.

Managing 276 miles of canals and potable water infrastructure with a small team requires smarter prioritization and stronger visibility across the system.

This is why Gulf Coast Water Authority - GCWA partnered with ASTERRA to take a more proactive approach. By identifying excessive soil moisture and hidden risk areas through non-invasive, satellite-based technology, their team can focus on specific areas of interest instead of driving 276 miles of canals searching for issues.

As Robert Upton, shared: “We believe in the technology, and we believe that it’s a good resource and a good tool in the toolbox.”

Watch the full video to see how GCWA is strengthening infrastructure resilience with ASTERRA EarthWorks. You can also connect with our team this week at the USSD Annual Conference to learn more.

Lots of events on the calendar!

Next week, we’re heading to Texas Water. Stop by booth 1915 to talk to . Find out how satellite-based, AI-driven insights are helping utilities detect hidden leaks, prioritize repairs, and improve efficiency across large, complex systems.

We’ll also be sharing lessons from our work in New Mexico, where a statewide program is helping small and rural utilities reduce water loss. It’s a model designed to be replicated in other regions facing similar challenges, including across Texas.

Drought conditions are putting increasing pressure on water systems, especially for smaller utilities. But with the right approach, even small systems can deliver big results.

Join and WaterWorld for an upcoming webinar featuring the City of Santa Clara, Utah. Learn how they uncovered 48 hidden leaks using satellite-guided detection to improve efficiency and reduce water loss.

What you’ll learn:
➡️ How satellite technology helps reduce non-revenue water in drought-stressed regions
➡️ Why integrating advanced technology with traditional leak detecion methods increases efficiency and accuracy
➡️ How smaller systems can achieve meaningful impact when they combine the right tools and operational partnerships

What are traditional leak detection approaches lacking? The ability to assess system-wide priorities.

That is where AI, combined with satellite technology, can come in.

These technologies have been proven to detect potable water leaks up to 10 feet underground across areas of up to 1,000 square miles. Advanced satellite technology and AI have helped utilities, governments, and industries detect underground leaks, assess soil moisture, and manage water and wastewater systems more efficiently. Join the expert panel from the City of Duncanville, Texas, and ASTERRA to learn how to detect leaks and reduce non-revenue water (NRW) across your entire system to improve inspections, enhance safety, and support long-term asset management.

Serving more than 11.5 million people, Buenos Aires' water network is vast, complex, and under pressure. With nearly 40% non-revenue water across 23,000 km of pipelines, traditional leak detection methods alone were no longer enough.

By partnering with ASTERRA and deploying satellite-based leak detection, AySA S.A. shifted to a more proactive, data-driven approach.

🛰️ 11,500 leaks identified and repaired in 12 months
💧 Millions of liters of water saved
👷‍♀️ Faster detection and repair cycles
