Interview – Mark Stanley
summary
Community-run LoRaWAN in Reading starts November 2015 and now runs 12 gateways with council funding adding about 40 more gateways regionwide. Projects include artists monitoring river flow, a people-count device, a BBC micro:bit shield, sugar‑beet growth sensing, and a van alarm that messages instead of sounding a siren. Local businesses build smart water meters and fridge sensors. Work focuses on network expansion, farmer trials, on‑premise network servers for data residency, and interest in firmware over the air updates.
