This document discusses the potential opportunities and applications of Internet of Things (IoT) technology, with a focus on smart cities and rural applications. It describes how IoT sensors could be used to monitor environments, infrastructure, agriculture and disasters. It also introduces Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWANs) as a way to connect IoT devices over long ranges using little power. LPWANs are presented as a way to enable new IoT solutions and business cases in cities as well as more remote locations. The document argues that widespread deployment of IoT sensors, combined with LPWAN connectivity, could help optimize resource use, increase agricultural yields, and improve disaster response.

IoT Opportunities – Smart Logistics
2525SMART Logistics – Where is that container?
• Shipping lines own 20m containers
- They have good visibility of location of every container on ships and in major ports
- But the containers then go to any of 8000 trucking companies in the US.
• There is no standard way to track these shipments
- Shipping lines have no visibility of location of containers, delays etc
- Consequence - one in three containers is moved empty, costing $30 - $40Bn/year (USD)
• Better visibility of location of containers moving by road
• Low cost, long battery life tracking unit permanently attached to every container
• Track every container, all of the time, minimizing empty shipments and saving $Bns
