The companies will use their joint technologies to target and solve agriculture, economic development, and smart government challenges
Paige Wireless and analytics leader SAS have become partners to solve community-centered challenges like those that affect agriculture, economic development, and smart governments. Using Paige Wireless’ carrier-grade LoRaWAN network, IoT-enabled sensor technology, and SAS’ artificial intelligence (AI) solutions, flood control is the first tough challenge the partners will tackle.
Frequent flooding events can wreak havoc on communities, closing roads, destroying infrastructure, interrupting essential services, and posing a safety risk to all that live, work, and play in affected areas. Flooding concerns continue to grow. Experts predict that by 2030, the number of people affected by flooding will more than double.
