This book covers how Internet of Things (IoT) has a role in shaping the
future of our communities. The author shows how the research and
education ecosystem promoting impactful solutions-oriented science can
help citizenry, government, industry, and other stakeholders to work
collaboratively in order to make informed, socially-responsible,
science-based decisions. Accordingly, he shows how communities can
address complex, interconnected socio-environmental challenges. This
book addresses the key inter-related challenges in areas such as the
environment, climate change, mining, energy, agro-economic, water, and
forestry that are limiting the development of a sustainable and
resilient society -- each of these challenges are tied back to IoT based
solutions.
