Meshed up
Here's an interesting article about the development of low-power wide area networks for monitoring water conservation and facilitating irrigation management. I just hope they don't directly feed it back to the grid controllers, since if someone or something hacks it, it could literally unleash a flood - not to mention wasting valuable water on a grand scale.
Interesting that mesh networking is now becoming available in wireless LAN access points in general! No more range extenders that require a different broadcast SSID, better seamless coverage for all (yay!)
