LoRaWAN in watermanagement
summary
LoRaWAN is deployed since 2017 with an open-source multiflex meter and about 40 gateways supporting roughly 70 sensors across municipalities and farms; data streams feed a central water information system that merges radar rainfall, forecasts and sensor data. A working feature adapts sampling rate by rainfall and sends per‑sensor downlinks to capture sewer peaks while conserving battery, addressing coverage and duty‑cycle limits. Early rollouts deliver real‑time dashboards, cost and water savings, and ongoing work targets underground sewer reach and antenna range.
