ABSTRACT Water management systems have an increasing impact on the development of sustainable urban services. The development of a geographic information system applied to water management is presented in this article after taking the priorities of smart cities into account. This system has been fully developed with free open source software to create a main system based on an efficient and specific proposed data model, along with four smart tools that have been developed for the city of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria: water network validations, visual trace simulation, historical data navigation and smart supply cuts. Thanks to this system, the water management company will be able to adapt its policies to offer a better customer experience and consumption plans based on predictive tools. The advantages for managers of water management companies are highlighted and discussed.
