We probably cannot "develop" our way out of our upcoming water crisis in the Western half of the United States. Conservation and efficiency improves will be key. Both conservation and efficiency need the same basic requirement - better and more real-time information. Smart metering technology will play a key role - firms like Outpost Central seem to be making the conversion to smart metering easier and more productive.
From their website:
"Outpost WASP Smart Water Meter is a revolutionary low cost water monitoring solution. With no power supply or data cables required you can connect the device to any compatible water meter. Meter readings and water consumption information are automatially transmitted to your website for consumption and efficiency reporting. Meter Readings can alternatively be directed to your billing system."
