Within these case studies we explore how Mobile IoT could help safeguard the environment and the supply of vital natural resources, such as water. This new class of mobile technologies are set to make it much easier and more cost-effective to deploy and manage connected wildlife trackers over extended periods of time and in remote areas.

We discover how using Mobile IoT it will become cost-effective for telecoms operators to relay real-time information on parking availability to drivers’ smartphones or dashboard computers. Low Power Wide Area (LPWA) mobile technologies could bring connectivity to utility meters beyond the reach of existing wireless solutions, enabling energy and water grids to become smarter and more efficient.
