Reihe: Internet of Things

This book covers how Internet of Things (IoT) has a role in shaping the future of our communities. The author shows how the research and education ecosystem promoting impactful solutions-oriented science can help citizenry, government, industry, and other stakeholders to work collaboratively in order to make informed, socially-responsible, science-based decisions. Accordingly, he shows how communities can address complex, interconnected socio-environmental challenges. This book addresses the key inter-related challenges in areas such as the environment, climate change, mining, energy, agro-economic, water, and forestry that are limiting the development of a sustainable and resilient society -- each of these challenges are tied back to IoT based solutions.

• Presents research into sustainable IoT with respect to wireless communications, sensing, and systems
• Provides coverage of IoT technologies in sustainability, health, agriculture, climate change, mining, energy, water management, and forestry
• Relevant for academics, researchers, policy makers, city planners and managers, technicians, and industry professionals in IoT and sustainability
