To support Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) initiatives, utilities are deploying high-density LoRaWAN® networks and LoRa®-enabled water meters in their water districts. For utilities looking to modernize their water and wastewater infrastructure, LoRaWAN® offers the range, propagation characteristics and cost profile the water industry requires to more effectively measure consumption data and trends in urban and rural areas – wirelessly and without manual intervention. These LoRaWAN® networks are public and built with abundant capacity, allowing them to be used for a variety of other municipal and Smart City applications.
