Technology Overview: Tenchijin COMPASS KnoWaterleak
Tenchijin COMPASS KnoWaterleak is a cloud-based mapping service that leverages satellite data and AI technology to support water utilities in improving the efficiency of their leak detection processes. It combines data from multiple satellites, open data, and digitized water supply ledgers and distribution pipe maps to analyze and pinpoint areas with high leakage risks within 100-meter blocks. With an intuitive and easy-to-use interface, it allows for centralized management of leak risk and on-site verification results. Users can quickly check data in real-time, supporting fast leak detection and repair planning.

By routinely registering and managing leakage locations within this system, AI can re-evaluate leakage risks based on the accumulated data, leading to improved accuracy. Through PoC with the Japanese government in 2022 and feedback from municipalities using the system, the service is expected to reduce inspection costs by up to 65% and survey time by up to 85%.

Tenchijin's technology has been recognized for its high level of expertise and low implementation barriers, earning the Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare Prize in the "7th Infrastructure Maintenance Awards" organized by Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, and Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications. Thanks to its reliability, the system is rapidly being adopted by municipalities across Japan.
