Most cities have large areas without basic sanitation,
wastewater treatment and with a high degree of
groundwater pollution and risks for public health.
Wastewater discharged from house-
holds and SME to the surface water,
as well as un-proper designed septic
tanks are a significant source of wa-
ter pollution. This urban problem can
only be solved if the locations of
wastewater generation and dis-
charge are known. The assessment
of qualified and quantified data, their
centralized availability, integration
and combination are basic pre-con-
ditions for all planning processes.
