How do citywide LoRaWAN networks drive citizens' value?
summary
LoRaWAN exists beyond pilots: networks use water utilities as anchor tenants to justify citywide coverage, feed The Things Stack and digital twins, and ingest realtime sensor streams. Concrete wins include a floral-bed deployment across ~60 flower beds that saves 4 hours (≈50%) of watering time and thousands of liters daily. Cities show 70 municipal customers with a catalog of 400+ sensors, but scaling stalls on data wrangling, lack of data scientists and ops funding.
