MSI WL-10a Wireless Gateway
MSI’s flow of knowledge floods into Taiwan’s water management with astonishing results.
In 2018, the Taiwan authorities initiated a series of advanced projects of water resources management. The scope of the projects was to build a complete forecasting model of water all the way from dams to the detailed level of irrigation channels in fields. The data included evaporation, penetration, and usage for the entire crop plants. The project combined weather forecasting from satellite observation and real-time water level / flow volume measurement in open channels.
MSI WL-10a gateway joined this advanced project with peer-to-peer NB-IoT connection, all the field level sensors and flow volume data in fields. Those fusion signals transferred with heterogeneous network LORA and MODBUS interoperation was also integrated. The results are astonishing. The data for 12 months field test using only 3W solar power, transferred 100% data uploaded to a water Authority cloud platform via the record re-
