Trinity River Authority of Texas - Information Technology

2024 TEEA Winner - Technical/Technology

The Trinity River Authority of Texas project intends to revolutionize traditional water plant operations by harnessing digital technology, which will enhance the processes of data collection, analysis, and decision-making. The project aims to address these challenges through the utilization of information technologies, environmental engineering, and operational technologies advancements, establishing a dynamic digital twin, a continuously evolving digital representation of physical processes. This convergence of the physical and digital realms yields precise, real-time performance insights.

The project's core activities involve the establishment of a digital twin, optimization of data collection points, formulation of calculations, and creation of data-driven insights. The dynamic representation of physical processes by the digital twin fosters a comprehensive understanding of plant operations among operators. This informed decision-making considers environmental implications, leading to more sustainable practices.
