In the three Panamanian neighborhoods of Nueva Jerusalen, 13 de Febrero, and La Alameda, significant land development and population growth have caused a growing demand for a stable method of water distribution. The area is yet to be fully mapped and documented, causing difficulty for the agencies trying to upgrade community water infrastructures. We created an interactive map plotting roads and existing water features. With this information, we provided recommendations on required pipe infrastructures and water pressure.
