Many hand water pumps across sub-Saharan Africa break down prematurely and remain out of service for significant periods of time. This issue has been well documented, with reports suggesting that between 20% and 65% of hand pumps in African countries are broken. It has also been reported that broken hand pumps in this region have represented US$1.2–1.5 billion of ineffective investment over the last 20 years. Regular post-construction monitoring of remote water pumps can help address these problems. However, in many instances traditional monitoring programmes require regular site visits to remote locations, which can delay the implementation of repairs and place heavy time and resource demands on supervisory bodies. In response there has been an emerging interest in the use of mobile phone based technologies to monitor water pumps. The authors describe a new monitoring system, called Mantis, which is intended to be a context-appropriate monitoring tool for hand pumps in developing regions. The paper intro...

塞拉利昂和冈比亚的新型水泵监测系统的现场试验
整个撒哈拉以南非洲地区的许多手动水泵过早发生故障,并在相当长的一段时间内保持停用。该问题已得到充分记录,报告表明,非洲国家中有20%至65%的手动泵已损坏。另据报道,在过去的20年中,该地区的手动泵损坏代表无效投资1.2–15亿美元。定期对远程水泵进行施工后监控可以帮助解决这些问题。但是,在许多情况下,传统的监视程序需要定期对偏远地区进行实地访问,这可能会延迟维修的实施,并给监管机构带来大量时间和资源需求。作为响应,已经出现了使用基于移动电话的技术来监视水泵的兴趣。作者介绍了一种称为Mantis的新监视系统,该系统旨在成为针对发展中地区的手动泵的上下文相关监视工具。论文介绍...
