    The purpose of this experimental work, is to develop the characterization of the daily consumption curve of the drinking water network of Picaihua, Totoras and Montalvo sectors from Ambato city. For the development of the analysis, a method was established, with which a systematic process can be obtained in this research, so: previous studies took place in the area to determine the best way to collect the data. Also, to create a record of the water consumed in each house, daily readings of the water meters were made, which lasted sixty days in a row. Later on, surveys in each house were carried out, with the objective of getting relevant information for this investigation, such as: number of people per house, number of toilets, showers, among others. At the same time, measurements of the drinking water pressure took place in each household, which lasted seven consecutive days. On the other hand, to obtain an hourly consumption information, a single house in the Montalvo sector was selected. A video camera was installed on the water meter, which recorded 24 hours a day, for seven days. With the information processed and analyzed, the pertinent calculations and interpretations were made. Afterwards, the daily consumption of each households in the Picaihua, Totoras and Montalvo sectors were: 155, 139 and 143 L/hab/day for each one of them. Finally, through a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) software all the results were showed graphically.
