The Client

Agbar is the major authority in water management in Barcelona. It was needed a system to clean up the sewer system. I had previous experience for building them a working prototype and now they wanted to bring this system to the next level: a separate desktop application which was running on a Toughbook that must get synchronized with a Web Application.

The Challange

One of the most challenging aspects of this project was synchronization. There are some areas in Spain where the Internet connection was not guaranteed. Thus, we needed a way to store the gathered data while devices were offline and send it to a server each time the connection was restored.
