Wyld Networks receive first satellite IoT data from Australia

Report this content

Wyld Networks in conjunction with Queensland based PLF Australia have begun monitoring soil moisture utilising Low Earth Orbiting satellite connectivity.

Satellite IoT in Australia utilising low power connectivity is essential for optimising land management. This process plays a crucial role in optimising irrigation, maximising yields and improving biodiversity.

Wyld have installed Wyld Connect AT430 terminals and AT302 modems with soil moisture sensors from DFM Technologies in Australia to monitor soil moisture and are now collecting data.

Vast areas of agricultural land in Australia are remotely located and have no available networks to connect IoT sensors and devices. There is an immense demand for IoT connectivity from farmers and agronomists and PLF Australia are deploying Wyld’s solutions to deliver this accurate operational information to their customers to enable improved data-driven decision making.

Adopting IoT technology will help primary producers increase yields and reduce costs, which in turn will lift profitability and improve the competitiveness of Australian produce in international markets.

“Satellite IoT technology is now crucial to Australian agriculture, as the sector continues to grow quality produce for global markets,” said Alastair Williamson, CEO Wyld Networks. “We are delighted to have started initial deployments with one of Australia’s leading agricultural IoT companies.”
