DESCRIPTION:Open-source resources are vital in promoting collaboration\, in
 novation\, and accessibility in the digital age\, making them an essential
  component of modern society. These resources empower individuals and orga
 nizations to work together\, share knowledge and ideas\, and ultimately cr
 eate new and innovative solutions that benefit everyone. Development and u
 se of open-source resources have diversified into all research and develop
 mental domains\, among which utility management has also become essential.
  Unlike commercial-grade resources\, open-source resources are free\, cust
 omizable\, and subject to the larger community of developers for fixing vu
 lnerabilities. This has emphasized the need to utilize technology and free
 ly available resources to create structured and effective systems for mana
 ging utilities. Utilities such as electricity\, water\, sewer\, drainage\,
  and infrastructures like cable lines\, supply pipelines\, roads\, and oth
 ers have become integral to modern life. Adopting innovative strategies th
 at cater to the community's changing needs is crucial to keep up with the 
 constantly evolving urban landscape. This research delves into the case st
 udy of utility management system for Kathmandu University\, demonstrating 
 the potency of web-enabled utility management systems using open-source re
 sources. We developed a Django-based backend\, PostgreSQL backed database 
 and employed HTML\, CSS\, JavaScript\, and jQuery for the front end of the
  utility system. Data for the case study were prepared using UAV imageries
  and open-source tools like QGIS. Its interactive web map facilitates user
  engagement\, issue reporting\, and complaint logging\, enabling timely re
 sponses and sustainable resource allocation. Our study showcases the open-
 source web-enabled utility management prototype that can be further extend
 ed for use in larger communities and industries for improved and managed u
 rban living\, prompt resource distribution\, and monitoring.
