Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are advancing the water sector in expected ways — resource planning and asset management — while also offering exciting, new opportunities.
As the water industry adapts to the current technological revolution, 2025 promises to be a pivotal year for integrating GIS advancements. With rapid developments in high-accuracy global navigation satellite systems (GNSS), indoor mapping, cloud computing, and remote sensing, GIS is poised to transform how water users manage infrastructure and resources. This evolution is about technology and properly equipping the industry with the tools to effectively navigate challenges like climate variability, regulatory compliance, and the impending workforce shift.
In 2025, several GIS technological advancements will significantly impact the water industry. High-accuracy GNSS and indoor/ vertical mapping will strengthen GIS as the definitive tool for managing infrastructure assets. As infrastructure data’s positional accuracy improves, augmented and extended reality technologies are emerging within the sector. Transitioning to cloud computing solutions like Google Earth Engine will revolutionize server-side processing by enabling large-scale watershed analysis, real-time water resource monitoring, and historical pattern analysis on an unprecedented scale. Meanwhile, advancements in remote sensing, utilizing satellite and drone data, will offer water scientists enhanced resolution imagery, more frequent data collection, and superior spectral analysis for water quality assessment.
