Disrupting urban innovation with LPWAN
summary
Digital Catapult and TTN create a free-to-use LoRaWAN testbed across the UK enabling rapid city pilots: 150 gateways deployed plus ~300 community gateways, 100 businesses supported through five council innovation programs, and pilots like parking sensors, construction impact monitoring, illegal-waste detection and a device for independent travel. A European project (Synchronicity) links 8 cities around common APIs and data models and 125 cities endorse the specs while an IoT data marketplace pilots in 4 cities to monetize shared sensor streams.
