Maintenance staff at the right place, at the right time
MORE ECO-FRIENDLY
Less energy consuming and avoid waste
Monitor water pollution and air quality level

20. SMARTER CITIES ARE SAFER SPARK INNOVATION
Area access control, monitoring of hazardous substances…
Elders’ monitoring
SPARK INNOVATION
IoT network coverage gives rise to innovators and start-ups to create more IoT solutions
Generate new tech business, increase employment & city attractiveness

21. SUCCESS FOR IOT LPWAN
Low costs, Security & Interoperability are key advantages for IoT LPWAN implementation in Cities.
1- COLLABORATION is required between Government, industry, education, within and between industry sectors and ‘eco-system’ partners.
2- OPEN architectures, protocols, data standards and interoperability across industries
3- CONNECTIVITY framework that is secure and simple: open specification that anyone can implement and is easy for developers to use.
4- LOW COSTS connectivity (low power consumption devices) are imperative to provide obvious benefits.
Consumers, Enterprise, Industrial, Automotive, Health, etc. who want smart devices to easily interconnect and communicate with appliances, embedded devices, etc. all need this. Developers of operating systems, platforms, and applications who want their products to interoperate seamlessly across many brands and eco-systems. End users who want consistent levels of security and identity across smart devices down to the smallest connected appliance.

22. GOOD EXAMPLE OF COLLABORATION: South Australia
The SA State Government have entered into an MoU with:
Thinxtra to implement a statewide SIGFOX network coverage to provide IoT connectivity for Councils, Utilities & Agriculture projects.
Many projects in the pipeline with collaboration between local councils, industry, incubators, system integrators and device makers in SA.
