Selecting the best sites to locate water quality and pressure monitoring locations involves satisfying multiple objectives and involves using a good deal of judgment. This paper looks at using the results of a water distribution model combined with the capability of spreadsheet calculations, GIS and the water distribution model for decision support. The approach used involves calculating indexes describing the desirability of sites for monitoring locations based primarily on ease of access and variation in the attribute of water age and pressure. Includes 10 references, table, figures.
