Abstract
A vehicle operates as a hub for locating and filtering water. The vehicle receives filter information over a local network connection between the vehicle and a water filter. The vehicle sends the filter information over a wide-area network from the vehicle to a cloud server. A human machine interface (HMI) remote from the filter displays filter details based on the filter information that explain aspects of the operation of the filter.
