[0002] A water meter is an instrument for measuring water flow, most of which measure the cumulative flow of water. It is generally divided into two categories: volumetric water meters and velocity water meters. Currently, the methods for collecting water meter data are mostly electronic measurement and direct reading measurement. Direct reading measurement is gradually being replaced by electronic measurement due to the high labor cost required. However, communities that have been in use for a long time still need to use direct reading measurement for data collection due to their old equipment. However, since water meters are mostly installed in the corners of walls, it is not convenient for data collectors to get close to the meters, which can easily lead to errors in measurement. At the same time, since the measurement environment is mostly dim, it is easy to make mistakes in reading and copying during the collection process, which can cause errors in the subsequent calculation of data statistics.
