📖Astrocast's Weekend Reading Recommendation 👓 - How IoT Solution Providers choose THE ONE — LEO satellite IoT connectivity provider. In this article, Olga Kostina aims to spark a dialogue regarding the standardization of assessing #LEOsatellite network providers by #IoT solution providers in response to the rapidly evolving Satellite IoT industry. She affirms that solution providers seek to expand coverage for critical applications such as high-value #logistics and infrastructure #monitoring, aiming for higher revenues. The due diligence process for selecting an LEO satellite provider involves assessing #network reliability to align with the criticality level of their business applications. The article focuses on due diligence when integrating satellite modems and airtime services into end-products while acknowledging overlap with integrating satellite terminals. She provides an overview of LEO-enabled IoT solutions to aid comprehension and concludes with a playful metaphor, signifying the transition from introductory formalities to substantive discussion. ➡️Read the article here👇🏼 https://lnkd.in/eqBzjbJs 🗣️And, share your thoughts with us in the comments section👇🏼

❓ASTROPOLL FRIDAY Over the past decades, the Internet of Things has empowered organisations to create substantial value, seize remarkable opportunities, and achieve notable efficiencies. However, despite these achievements, numerous enterprises still face challenges with their connected products.  According to a Telenor IoT's study, only one in ten companies that launch IoT initiatives reach more than 20 per cent of their targeted volume within the first three years. Similar figures are estimated by Gartner, which shows that 75% of IoT projects will take twice as long as planned, with significant cost overruns. ✍️ Let us know your thoughts in the comments section. #SatIoT #IoTsolutions #satcomms

📖Astrocast's Weekend Reading Recommendation 👓 -  How can the world leverage IoT to tackle agricultural emissions? This article from IoT2Market discusses how agriculture contributes to greenhouse gas emissions and explores the role of the Internet of Things (IoT) in minimizing these emissions. It highlights that agriculture accounts for 19-29% of global greenhouse gas emissions and emphasizes the urgent need for sustainability in the industry. While countries like the U.S., China, and India are implementing changes to reduce emissions, more action is required. It showcases how IoT is crucial for modernizing agriculture and addressing emissions effectively. The article examines the primary sources of carbon emissions in agriculture, including enteric fermentation, manure management, and soil cultivation, and suggests ways IoT can help tackle these emissions. It discusses applying IoT technology in smart greenhouses, agricultural robots, and livestock monitoring to reduce emissions and create a more sustainable future for agriculture. ➡️Read the article here👇🏼 https://lnkd.in/dCybyPCv 🗣️And, share your thoughts with us in the comments section👇🏼 #agriculture #greenhousegasemissions #InternetofThings #sustainability
