Abstract

See full text

A system and a method for monitoring and detecting an illegal sump pump in a sewer system is used to accurately detect and locate sump pumps that are illegally connected to the sewer system. Actual audio profiles are collected and timestamped with audio-recording devices. The actual audio profiles from the audio-recording devices are relayed to the remote server. The remote server compares each actual audio profile to a baseline audio profile to identify at least one matching audio profile. If the matching audio profile is identified amongst the actual audio profiles, the remote server geolocates a potential location for an illegal sump pump based on the sewer location of the corresponding audio-recording device for the matching audio profile. The remote server compiles the potential location of an illegal sump pump into a summarization report. The sewer system is continuously monitored by executing several iterations of the overall process.
