Otta's take
Xav Kearney
CTO of Otta
As the effects of climate change intensify, the frequency of flooding events is increasing. However, major infrastructures are currently grappling with a reactive approach, mainly due to the scale of their networks and the absence of adequate sensing technology and analytics. This approach proves to be expensive and environmentally harmful. Recognising these challenges, ManholeMetrics wants to address these issues and provide an effective solution to mitigate the impact of flooding.
ManholeMetrics provides cost-effective, long-lasting sensors that are designed to monitor wastewater levels. These sensors are accompanied by real-time and predictive alert systems, allowing infrastructure operators to take a proactive approach to flood management. Through this proactive approach, ManholeMetrics enables the creation of calibrated models and facilitates optimised data-driven decision-making for more effective flood prevention and response.
ManholeMetrics has received support from Yorkshire Water, Thames Water, and National Highways. This support not only serves as a testament to the credibility of ManholeMetrics' technology, but also propels the company closer to achieving its ambitious goal of ending flooding.

- Drive - we must show a clear passion for what we do and why we do it and the role it plays in our ultimate objective - ending flooding. This was the impetus behind our creation and is what motivates us to continue to innovate and push the boundaries of the possible
- Deliver - we must follow through on our commitments to our clients and colleagues, providing outcomes that make efficient use of the resources at our disposal, and at times work in an agile manner, flexing between self-led and collaborative working styles in response to our dynamically changing start-up environment
