Amsterdam, Monday, 8 December 2025.
Munisense’s Water Portal now boasts over 25,000 monitoring points, significantly enhancing data accuracy to 99% and supporting the Netherlands’ environmental protection goals.

Advanced Monitoring Capabilities

The Munisense Water Portal, boasting more than 25,000 measuring points, over half of which are telemetry-based, represents a significant leap in monitoring technology. This system provides a 99% data accuracy guarantee, making it a reliable resource for understanding groundwater quality and ensuring compatibility with the Basisregistratie Ondergrond (BRO), a key registry for underground data in the Netherlands [1].

Technological Integration and Impact

Munisense has integrated LTE-M 4G/5G network technology into their water meters, allowing for precise measurements with a margin of error of just +/- 5 millimeters. The meters measure air pressure compensation via interpolation between multiple KNMI stations, measuring once or more per hour and transmitting data four times daily. This data is converted to the Dutch height reference system (mNAP) and validated within one second [1].

Environmental and Economic Benefits

This technological advance supports various stakeholders, including government agencies, water companies, and the construction sector, promoting better water resource management and environmental protection. The high-quality data ensures effective monitoring, crucial for combating pollution and addressing challenges posed by climate change [1].

Broader Implications for Water Management

Munisense’s innovative approach exemplifies how technological advancements in data accuracy and availability can transform sectors reliant on precise environmental data. As groundwater levels increasingly fluctuate due to climate change, accurate monitoring becomes indispensable for strategic planning and sustainable development [GPT].
