Waterleau Data Platform
From sensor to insight — one platform for all your plant data.
This proof-of-concept demonstrates how we collect raw sensor data from multiple plants, process it into meaningful KPIs, and make it available through dashboards and any tool of your choice.
Why a Data Platform?
Today
- Data is scattered across different systems per plant
- KPIs are calculated manually or in Excel
- No cross-plant overview possible
- Every new dashboard requires custom development
- Locked into a single visualization tool
With the Data Platform
- All plant data flows into one central system
- KPIs are calculated automatically and consistently
- Compare any plant from a single dashboard
- Self-service: build your own charts and queries
- Use any tool — Superset, Power BI, Grafana, Excel
