As of today, countries are experiencing rapid urbanization, It is assumed that urbanization will raise in the future and will become up to 6 billion population by 2045. This significant increase in urban population will increase the demand for energy, water, and other services in the city. So, cities are becoming smarter in the provision of urban services and infrastructure. As considering urban services and infrastructure, water is valuable and highly in demand by the people in the urban cities. Water is fundamental to life, livelihood, and sustainable development for smart cities. The cities present a depressing scene of shortages of water and power, rivers turning into drains, and pollution. Water will be a critical issue and a major problem in urban areas. To conserve, monitor, analyze (the quality and quantity of water), and reduce the water challenges, a new trend is emerging that is digitalization with an increase in demand for sustainable and efficient water urban services. This digitalization helps in interconnecting the urban services, infrastructure, and consumers to make a smart city workable. Thus, it provides the IoT system approachable to make smart water management in the concept of a smart city. This research paper will present the application of smart water management systems by using IoT which includes a solution for water quality, water quantity, water monitor and control, leak detection, pressure, water recycling, and flow, etc. This research also includes how the IoT systems including sensors, monitors, etc can be implemented in smart water management to reduce the current water management challenges for a successful transition of developing cities to smart cities.
