Our first meter reading system was built in 1996, a Windows desktop system using hand help computers, where meter readers had to travel to the office each morning to receive their work and they would not be seen, or heard of again until the end of the day, all being well.
The Internet has been a game changer for meter reading, improving; efficiency, saftey and the way we manage our field workers and changing the way we deliver software.
