    Abstract: A computer-implemented system for validating meter data in a utility monitoring system based on streamed sensor data is described. The system includes a metering analytics system configured to receive a stream of meter data received from sensors in or in proximity with utility meters, the meter sensor data being generated by the sensors and a central event management system for validating meter sensor data in the streamed sensor data based on a plurality of sequential sensor reads in the streamed sensor data. The central event management system is configured to receive an invalidation event definition defining a sensor value usage invalidation threshold, apply the invalidation event definition to read messages received through the streamed sensor data, monitor read messages in the streamed sensor data to identify a first read message for a watched meter, and identify an invalid meter satisfying the invalidation event definition based upon receipt of at least a second read message for the violating meter indicating that the meter sensor data is outside of a defined range for the sensor value usage invalidation threshold range.
