About NAWASIP

National AI-Powered Water & Sanitation Intelligence Platform for Nigeria.

2024–2026 · Architecture, data, AI, IoT, GIS, and citizen engagement.

Platform Overview

NAWASIP (National AI-Powered Water & Sanitation Intelligence Platform) is a unified ecosystem for the Federal Ministry of Water Resources & Sanitation. It integrates artificial intelligence, IoT telemetry, GIS mapping, weather & hydrology feeds, and citizen tools to deliver real-time monitoring, predictive analytics, and evidence-based decision support.

Core capabilities include multilingual AI chatbots, flood prediction & early warnings, water quality monitoring, sanitation compliance scoring, citizen reporting, and a national policy simulation lab for planning and resilience building.
