Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authority, UK trials flood sensor network in St. Neots
Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authority, UK Sensor
Six locations on the River Great Ouse were selected for the pilot. Sensors from local company cThings leverage LoRaWAN connectivity for live tracking of river flow, level, and temperature. Local officials receive messages when sensor readings indicate potential flooding in Huntingdonshire. This trial evaluates the effectiveness of early-warning messages and potential collaborations with local organizations. A successful pilot may see an expanded sensor network supported by new LoRaWAN gateways.
