Summary:
It is a Low-Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) technology protocol that has been designed to connect ‘things’ wirelessly in regional, national or global networks. When we say ‘things’, the scope of what things could be connected over LoRaWAN is unlimited. For eg: we can connect all soil-moisture sensors in a large farm over a LoRaWAN network, and get the soil moisture levels and nitrogen levels to a central location. We can also connect all water meters in a colony over a LoRaWAN network and remotely monitor water usage, any spills or leakages etc. The Things Network is a global open IoT network which started from the Netherlands and now has a presence in 141 countries..
