The Päijät Häme Vesijärvi Foundation has acquired the EMMI software prorgam from Masinotek. The Lake Vesijärvi Foundation is a unique Finnish initiative
that combines public and private partners to secure funding for environmental research, maintenance, and management efforts in Lake Vesijärvi and its
water catchment area. The foundation also works to improve the general public’s awareness of Lake Vesijärvi and its environmental condition and to promote
all efforts to improve its water quality. The EMMI software now contains all environmental observation points covering a large lake area near the city of
Lahti. The EMMI software system enables real-time data monitoring and helps monitor the environmental condition of the lake for recreation, industrial
purposes as well as overall environmental health. This project highlights EMMI's strengths in combining historical enviromental data, online sensor
monitoring systems, and current laboratory measurements via multiple application program interfaces (APIs) resulting in a real-time comprehensive data
repository. In addition, EMMI boasts a geographical mapping representation of observation points to provide a greater overall understanding of lake
conditions. This project highlighted the status of the city of Lahti as the European Capital of Environment in 2021.

Masinotek has implemented an indoor environment monitoring project for the City of Vantaa during the spring of 2022. The client in the project is Vantaan VTK Oy, which is responsible for the management of the city's offices as well as the technical management and maintenance of the properties. Masinotek delivered modern IoT sensors, transmitters and an online data monitoring service and data analytics to the interiors of two properties. The measurement data can be used in energy monitoring of the premises as well as indoor air monitoring and ventilation technical adjustment of buildings.

Keuruu Water conducted an extensive procurement process and considered many options in selecting a suitable maintenance management software. The goal was to integrate software into their maintenance operations that would support the entire operation of water utilities, both in terms of piping networks and in terms of wastewater treatment plants and water abstraction facilities. The selection of Masinotek's AHJO maintenance software was supported by the recommendations of other water utilities, mobile usability and the possibility to obtain a compatible pipe network map service from the same supplier.
Masinotek has provided a measurement and data management system for the monitoring of stormwater sites in the city of Kuopio. In its new HuLa project, Savonia University of Applied Sciences is developing and researching stormwater quantity and quality management as well as long term monitoring. Masinotek's total delivery covers radar-based flow meters, pressure sensors that monitor the stormwater levels and rain meters that monitor precipitation. The stormwater flow and other relevant parameters are collected in real time in an Internet-based EMMI environmental monitoring system developed and maintained by Masinotek.
Sipoo Water has dozens of wastewater pumping stations, both local pumping stations as well as transfer pumping stations leading to Helsinki City's Viikki wastewater treatment plant. The combined electricity consumption of the pumping stations is a significant expense for the water utility, and costs are also increased by unintentional stormwater entering the sewer network. Masinotek has implemented an electricity consumption monitoring system for Sipoo Water, which collects hourly electricity consumption data from all wastewater pumping stations. These data can be used in the management of stormwater seepage and
the optimization of pump station maintenance operations.
Peat fields account for more than half of Finland's agricultural greenhouse gas emissions. In its four-year project, Finland's Natural Resources Center, LUKE, is investigating the variability of the groundwater level in peat fields and its significance for carbon dioxide emissions of the peat field. During the summer and autumn of 2021, Masinotek will supply several dozen continuous IoT measuring stations and sensors to the project. Our company is also responsible for the field installation of the equipment, data collection and delivery of the data system, as well as maintenance for the Natural Resources Center.
Masinotek has delivered a network information system (NIS) for the water supply network to Turku Region Water (TSV), one of Finland's largest wholesale water companies supplying water to nine cities in southwest Finland. The network information system Masmaps will be integrated into the maintenance software AHJO, which Masinotek has already supplied to TSV many years ago. The mapping software helps to monitor network fault situations and maintenance operations in a large area of water supply operations in southwestern Finland.
During the summer of 2020, Masinotek delivered a real-time flow and pressure monitoring service to the Riihimäki Water drinking water network, which
includes 18 flow measurement sites. The project uses Masinotek's EMMI system, which has application program interfaces with the existing automation
system and the data loggers delivered to the customer. Riihimäki Water aims to use flow and pressure data to prioritize the replacement of pipe
infrastructure according to the areas with the most water leakage. An additional benefit of the system is in the quick location of major water leakage when
the leaking water is not immediately visible on the surface.
Porvoo Energy is a major regional producer and distributor of heat and electricity in southern Finland. Almost all of the district heat and power it
generates today is based on 100% renewable energy sources. Porvoon Energia has several power plants and district heating pipe networks in the Porvoo area. The energy firm acquired full-service AHJO computerized maintenance management software from Masinotek.
