The IoT platform provides both authorities, researchers and private actors with a solution to collect, share and analyze environmental data in real time.
The IoT platform is a joint public solution that gathers data from over 500 sensors installed throughout Denmark. These sensors measure parameters such as water levels and water flow in streams, helping to monitor environmental data in real time. It is particularly relevant for municipalities, regions and utilities that need accurate hydrological data.
The IoT platform gathers data from Internet of Things (IoT) devices that are located in environmental areas, including streams, lakes, and sewer systems. The data, which is collected in real time, is shared across authorities and companies via a standardized data model.
The platform is already used by the Danish Environmental Protection Agency (Miljøstyrelsen), which has migrated hundreds of sensors to the system, and more municipalities and regions are encouraged to contribute their own data. In the long term, it is expected that thousands of IoT devices will provide data to the platform, which will create a comprehensive picture of environmental state of Denmark.
For municipalities and authorities
The IoT platform makes it possible to share data from different sensors across authorities. It helps to improve the coordination of climate adaptation efforts and the real-time monitoring of the aquatic environment. Municipalities can use the data to prevent and respond quickly to flooding and other water-related events, and can use the platform to monitor water levels in their watercourses and receive alerts when there is a risk of flooding.
For scientists and engineers:
Researchers can take advantage of the large amounts of hydrological data collected by the platform and use it for analysis and development of climate adaptation strategies. Engineers can use the platform to ensure that new infrastructure projects account for flood and environmental impact risks.
