# Usage of IoT Framework in Water Supply Management for Smart City in Nepal
## 4 Results and Discussion
It is anticipated that by 2020, mega-city corridors, integrated and networked smart cities will be developed. Likewise, it is presumed that, by 2025 60% of people around the globe will reside in urban areas [68]. In an IoT world, devices can be compiled as per their geographic location and evaluated through the application of analyzing systems [69]. The IoT enables remote sensing and controlling of objects over current network resources. Gartner estimates that by 2020, 260 million objects will be connected [70]. One of the bitter facts is sensor interfacing limits the number of connected devices and sensors to be connected in the IoT system which is also the crux for sensor data collection of wireless sensor networks in an IoT environment [71]. The deployment of applications related to the IoT could be tough and \begin{table}
