Patent attributes
Systems and methods for demand-based water distribution and management are disclosed. The system may determine a first price for each water distributor of a plurality of water distributors based on a plurality of demand factors. The system may transmit a plurality of water distributor locations to a first customer device, each location associated with a respective water distributor. The system may receive a selection of a first water distributor location from the first customer device and, in response, transmit directions to the first water distributor location to the first customer device. In response to the first customer device being authenticated by a first water-distribution device associated with the first water distributor, the system may transmit a signal to the first water-distribution device to transition to an unlocked state to allow the first customer to make a first purchase of water at a first price.
