Abstract The water distribution network (WDN) is considered one of the most important infrastructural requirements for future cities worldwide. In order to meet the growing water demand of the developing population, it is essential to design a sustainable WDN. In recent decades, numerous researches have been conducted in this field considering various parameters, but poor WDN layout design leads to increasing project cost in terms of execution, maintenance, etc. Hence, the objective of this research work was to overcome the above drawbacks by designing a real time network for a rural emerging village near Rasayani, Maharashtra with the help of Geographical Information System (GIS) and hydraulic simulation using Environmental Protection Agency Network (EPANET). The area of Sawale village is surveyed both physically and using the software. The basic objective of this research is to determine the best possible way in which a given WDS can be optimized to meet the current water demand in Sawale village. EPANET is hydraulic simulation software that can be efficiently used for such purposes. The results show that hydraulic simulation together with the application of GIS helps to create a less time consuming, sustainable and optimized WDN.
