The meter system comprises a portable water meter that is releaseably mountable onto a discharge nozzle of the fire hydrant and a flow sensor that senses the water flow rate passing therethrough the portable water meter. A processor receives, processes, and/or stores data from the flow sensor and a satellite positioning system, operatively coupled to the processor, that is adapted to receive satellite position determining signals. The hydrant meter system further comprises a communication device that is operatively coupled to the processor and is adapted to transmit the processed flow signal and the processed positioning signal to a remote server system via a communication medium. The hydrant meter system allows for automated water utility resource measurements, data collection and exercise of control and notification of fire hydrant water usage.
