The Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition system is a computer-based system that monitors and controls remote water facility sites.
A SCADA master control is typically located in a dedicated control center or treatment plant control room. Remote sites are equipped
with remote terminal units to gather information and issue controls from the master station.
