Multi-Agentic Water Health Surveillance

Abstract

Clean water security demands autonomous systems that sense, reason, and act at scale. We introduce AquaSurveil, a unified multi-agent platform coupling mobile robots, fixed IoT nodes, and privacy-preserving machine learning for continent-scale water health surveillance. The architecture blends Gaussian-process mapping with distributed particle filtering, multi-agent deep-reinforcement Voronoi coverage, GAN/LSTM anomaly detection, and sheaf-theoretic data fusion; components are tuned by Bayesian optimization and governed by Age-of-Information-aware power control. Evaluated on a 2.82-million-record dataset (1940–2023; five countries), AquaSurveil achieves up to 96% spatial-coverage efficiency, an ROC-AUC of 0.96 for anomaly detection, ≈95% state-estimation accuracy, and reduced energy consumption versus randomized patrols. These results demonstrate scalable, robust, and energy-aware water quality surveillance that unifies robotics, the IoT, and modern AI.
