Bismart and Libelium have worked on a project to analyze the environmental triggers of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) decompensation in order to be able to size the hospital emergency and hospital admission services as soon as possible before these possible environmental triggers appear.

Both companies have worked onn a system based on Waspmote Plug & Sense! Sensor Platform to control temperature, humidity, wind, fog, rain, SO₂ and NO₂ levels. It has been installed at Microsoft’s Executive Briefing Center in Brussels.

Microsoft’s Executive Briefing Center in Brussels

The installation consists of 3 different models of Libelium’s IoT platform which can measure the different parameters above-mentioned with the Smart Cities platform, Smart Agriculture solution and Smart Environment PRO application for air quality control.

Waspmote Plug & Sense! installed at the Executive Briefing Center

Data collected by the sensors is analyzed on the Bismart platform where environmental triggers at monthly level are correlated with the monthly admissions in a small number of hospitals in Brussels.

The report shows the monthly behavior of different environmental variables in the city:

• Snow days
• Rain days and total precipitation
• Hours of daylight
• Relative humidity
• Average temperature

COPD Triggers Monitor & Analysis on Bismart’s platform

With Azure Machine Learning, which correlates the information of discharges with the environmental variables, certain thresholds that can lead to an increase of the admissions by COPD can be determined such as temperature below 10º or relative humidity greater than 78%. At the same time, there is a correlation between admissions information and environmental variables at monthly level.

At this time, there are several next steps under development. One of them is the acquisition of the environmental variables in real time thanks to the information provided by sensors. Another is the analysis of these variables in real time to have an Operational Control Panel to help us determine possible admissions for COPD in hospitals with the aim of improving patient care.

Cruises have undergone an exponential growth in the last few years. More and more tourists choose to spend their holidays on board of one of those cruisers increasing the maritime traffic arriving at harbor. Among their favorite destinations there is the Mediterranean Sea, where Barcelona and Palma de Mallorca’s harbors lead the ranking of passengers welcoming.

In the case of Palma de Mallorca, massive arrival of ships and tourists endangers the island’s environmental balance. Authorities are trying to prevent its impact from having a negative effect on life conditions in Mallorca, which is betting on becoming a smart and sustainable tourist destination.

Map of Mallorca

Becoming Smart Destinations

To do so, Mallorcawifi.com has opted for Libelium’s technology in the project developed for the Balearic Harbors Authority (APB in Spanish). In this way, Mallorcawifi.com has deployed a wireless sensor platform aimed at measuring environmental impact not only of cruisers docking, but also of the whole harbor’s activity.

In fact, Mallorcawifi.com has more than 20 years of experience in telecommunications services and WiFi nets deployment. This company built the largest public free WiFi net in Europe following a successful public-private cooperation model. Their aim is to turn touristic destination into smart cities supporting an innovative a sustainable business model.

A multidisciplinary research team from University of the Balearic Islands (UIB in Spanish) is also involved in the project. This team will analyze the results obtained by the sensors net in order to correlate air pollution and noise pollution levels with the activity generated in the harbor, and the way it affects the city. Everything is aimed at making decisions on the harbor’s environmental behavior and improving the conditions so that tourists and island inhabitants can enjoy a healthier city.

Waspmote Plug & Sense! Sensor Platforms installed in Mallorca

Balearic harbors managed by APB are ranked in the third place in the number of cruise passengers -almost two million- and are the second in the number of registered layovers, led by Italian Civitavecchia harbor.

However, not only cruisers dock in Palma de Mallorca’s harbor. In 2016, according to APB 3,031 ships arrived at any of the Balearic harbors. Those ships brought 2.5 million passengers and more than 8.2 million tons of good. According to a study by the Balearic Business Associations Confederation (CAEB in Spanish) and the International University of the Balearic Islands, the economic impact of Balearic harbors is 290 million euros directly on the touristic sector companies and 146 million euros of indirect economic impact. The sector creates 3,000 new employments every year.

Air pollution and noise measurement

The return of investment of an IoT project to improve sustainability is really easy to reach because any measure taken to increase tourists’ wellness has a positive effect on destination’s relevance and attracts higher economic power passengers. As a matter of fact, these passengers search for experiences which enable them to mix urban tourism, nature, gastronomy and interaction with the area inhabitants.

Sensor Platforms installed in Portopi Lighthouse

The project deployed in the city of Palma measures two basic environmental parameters which most affect on citizens’ health: air quality and noise. To do so, the project contemplates to place a total of 27 Waspmote Plug & Sense! Smart Environment PRO in different locations around Palma’s harbor, and 5 Waspmote Plug & Sense! Smart Cities. Those devices collect the data provided by 81 sensors measuring, among other aspects, carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, ozone, noise, temperature, humidity, air pressure, wind and rainfalls.

Several Waspmote Plug & Sense! deployed in Mallorca’s Port

In the first stage of the project eight devices have been placed in the Dique del Oeste, the signals tower and Portopí lighthouse, Maritime Station nr. 3, Can Barbarà, Sa Qarentena park, Mollet opposite pier, commercial piers, and the APB historical venue, next to Palma de Mallorca’s cathedral. APB intends to spread this experience to the rest of Balearic harbors.

Sigfox is the protocol which has been used to communicate the data collected by the sensors. Iqmenic, created by Nexmachina, is the wireless platform for management and control of communications among sensors and IP devices to deploy new IoT services.

Athens International Airport (AIA), in Greece, has increased the number of passengers by more than 10% in the last year. Approximately 20 million passengers went through its gates in 2016, setting a new traffic record for Athens. These figures involve a significant number of planes landing and taking off. The airport has a strong commitment to environmental protection; it is the first airport in Greece to become carbon neutral.

Athens, Greece

AIA’s commitment to environmental protection goes hand in hand with innovation. That’s why in 2016, the airport partnered with a Greek company specialized in IoT prediction analytics and IoT solutions, Ex Machina in order to explore innovative IoT solutions to enrich AIA’s environmental monitoring, analysis and reporting. Libelium’s technology was utilized for the hardware sensors part of this project. Eight Waspmote Plug & Sense! Smart Cities, three Waspmote Plug & Sense! Environment PRO using GPRS and LoRa communications together with Meshlium IoT gateways using LoRa and 3G communications compose the in field hardware of the solution.

Diagram of Athens International Airport IoT solution

The aim of this project was to face two demanding challenges: the need to monitor air quality outside the airport fence and the need to determine aircraft location on the airfield

Ad-hoc air quality monitoring

The first challenge involved the monitoring and analysis of air pollutant concentrations, such as Ozone (O₃) and Particulate Matter (PM1, PM2.5, PM10). Ex Machina focused on the need for an inexpensive, highly portable, stand-alone, connected air pollution monitoring device to complement AIA’s existing air quality monitoring network. The solution is based on Libelium Waspmote Plug & Sense! Sensor Platform, and is comprised of cost-effective, standard hardware assembly with EXM´s custom firmware. Each sensor node is equipped with probes for temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, ozone and particulate matter.

Additionally, throughout the project it was possible to evaluate Libelium’s air quality sensors accuracy, taking advantage of the highly portable/compact and energy autonomous approach of the Waspmote Plug & Sense! model. Finally the LoRa communication characteristics, in terms of range, security and energy consumption were also evaluated.

Aircraft location on the airfield

The second challenge was to detect aircraft location in the airfield during take off with a non-intrusive mechanism. To address this challenge, Ex Machina decided to utilize acoustic localization techniques. This unusual, yet innovative approach is possibly world’s first implementation in using noise sensors to determine aircraft location on the airfield.

Ex Machina deployed an array of sound/noise metering nodes of Libelium Plug & Sense! to monitor noise levels on the airfield in real time, thus creating a non-intrusive IoT solution which achieves airplane acoustic localization based on real-time data analytics of the data produced by the noise sensors.

Another aspect of the project was the challenges related with the location that the sensors had to be placed, involving multiple restrictions for safety and security reasons. As a result, the sound monitoring nodes were autonomous, bearing solar panels and batteries, and utilized dual wireless communications (GPRS, LoRa).

The noise data collected is analysed in the EXM IoT backend, in order to be correlated with various additional information, such as airplane types/flights/airlines. Through the combined analysis of the acquired data, the location of aircraft can be identified and reported to the airport’s environmental department for further statistical analysis, thus enhancing its environmental monitoring capabilities.

The EXM turn-key ΙοΤ PaaS combines powerful analytics, visualization and reporting on the data processing cloud side, with on-site sensor deployment and communication infrastructure for real-world data acquisition and aggregation. The LoRa communications infrastructure additionally enables the use of diverse low-power wireless sensors and IoT use-cases within the airport site, such as water or gas consumption monitoring, indoor climate/air quality tracking, parking space management, and so on.

Ex Machina specializes in environmental IoT predictive analytics offering a wide range of solutions built on top of cutting edge open source IoT technologies and PaaS cloud providers. In the current project, various IoT PaaS options were integrated with Meshlium and were evaluated, such as Microsoft Azure, IBM Bluemix and Sentilo.io which all provided a good fit for the project requirements. Final solution was a mix of Microsoft Azure services combined together with EXM’s components built on open source IoT frameworks/systems including NodeRED, Grafana and InfluxDB. This approach provided the maximum flexibility and extensibility as it was required.

Libelium’s Waspmote Plug & Sense! devices send the sensor data using LoRa communications for low power, low range, real time sensor data transmission and device control/orchestration. For secure device management, Over the Air firmware upgrades (FOTA), configuration of firmware parameters and thresholds and the bulk upload of sensor data as backup, the sensor platform uses GPRS communications.

Ex Machina’s decision to trust Libelium’s open-source technologies provides maximum flexibility to its end customers avoiding vendor lock-in, being protocol agnostic and at the same time secure, robust and scalable solutions. The use of open technologies to build the solution increases flexibility and transparency, enabling at the same time full access to raw data.

High tech, flexible and accurate platform

Manolis Nikiforakis, CEO of Ex Machina, has a long experience in the field of the IoT. He is the leader of this project, in which an IoT wireless sensor network of thirteen devices made by Libelium has been deployed.

Manolis explains the reasons for the choice of Libelium’s as a partner for this project: “fast time to market with minimum hardware related overhead was an important requirement”, he states. “As this is a pilot project and our focus is on the IoT backend software analytics, we also required flexibility in order to assemble sensor hardware exactly as needed”, Manolis adds. “But equally important is the technical support and Libelium combines both features perfectly”, Manolis states.

Airport personnel from the IT and Environmental departments who were involved in the project were satisfied by the project results, both in terms of characteristics of the technology used but also on the analytics results and statistics. Further to this successful pilot, the airport is examining possible use cases with Ex Machina. Overall, Ex Machina, considers the Airport as a smart city as it evolves towards Airport 3.0 thus the deployed IoT /LoRa infraestructure will be extended and reused in various other IoT use-cases.

“Libelium provides a very well thought solution addressing the sensor hardware and communication layers of the IoT value chain, making it a perfect fit for R&D projects. In Ex Machina we strongly believe that IoT transformation projects demand an agile approach and Libelium is an excellent first step in this process”, Manolis points out.

Pollution in all its kinds is worrying citizens and authorities. Collecting and analyzing the most accurate information is one of the main aims of city councils to make the best decisions in order to improve their standards of living.

The Council of the Dutch city of Tilburg aimed at checking the environmental status related with water, air quality and noise pollution, has trusted Ericsson and Libelium to set up an IoT platform around the area of Puishaven, in the city centre, to control and manage the environmental data.

Project location

Ericsson, a global leader in delivering ICT solutions, uniquely delivers IoT capabilities from world-leading connectivity to award-winning industrial-IoT applications. The company has partnered Libelium in order to deploy a complete wireless sensor network to measure different parameters related to air and water quality such as temperature, humidity, pressure, Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) Nitric Dioxide (NO₂), Ozone (O₃) and Particle Matter (PM 1, PM 2.5, PM 10). Related to water quality, the project includes pH and conductivity probes. Apart from this data, the sound and ultrasound levels, the number of Bluetooth and WiFi devices can also be measured during special events in an especially crowded area of the Piushaven.

Installation process of Libelium devices

Air, water and noise level sensors

Libelium’s sensor network which has been deployed in Piushaven is composed of five Waspmote Plug & Sense! Smart Environment devices, one of them to measure temperature, humidity and pressure, three other sensors to measure Carbon Dioxide (CO₂), Nitric Dioxide (NO₂), Ozone (O₃) and one more, a Dust Sensor, to measure the Particle Matter.

Regarding water quality measurement, the network includes two Waspmote Plug & Sense! Smart Water sensors. One of them will collect information on water pH and the other one on Conductivity. In this case, three different calibration kits are included.

Water pH and conductivity are the parameters to be measured

In order to measure sound levels, two Waspmote Plug & Sense! Smart City sensors were installed. One of them consists of a microphone and the other one is an Ultrasound probe. Libelium’s Noise Level Sensor measures the parameter LAeq (Equivalent Continuous Sound Level, with A-type weighting), in dBA units. LAeq is the most frequently used parameter for noise measurements. It is now used by most countries as the metric of choice for measuring the exposure of workers to noise, as there is no time constant and it correlates reasonably well to the effect of hearing damage risk. It is common practice to measure noise levels using the A-weighting setting built into all sound level meters.

All sensors are equipped with a 6,600 mAh rechargeable battery which works on solar power provided by a solar panel of 7 V providing a maximum current of 500 mA.

A Meshlium Gateway, the Meshlium Scanner 802.15.4-PRO-AP completes the network elements to detect the MAC address of smartphones, hands free and cars by scanning WiFi signals.

The communication among the different elements of the network takes place according to different protocols. Communication between the devices and the IoT gateway is carried out by an XBee-PRO working in the 2.4 GHz band. Between the gateway and the cloud the communication to download data periodically goes through Wi-Fi and Ethernet connection to the local database.

All the collected data is analyzed in the cloud using Ericsson’s IoT Accelerator platform and visualized through a dashboard made to fit customer needs. In fact, the main requirement is to check the environmental status of the water standards, the air quality and the sound levels measured to be visualized on a public website.

The goal of the project is to provide an open platform where city environmental quality can be monitored. Via analytics tools, Ericsson’s IoT Accelerator platform combines all measured data so new insights can be revealed. The ultimate goal is to have a predictive system to forecast people movements passing by (by foot, bike or car) depending on, for instance, the weather conditions and to indicate what impact will produce to the sound levels on the zone.

Besides, as the city celebrates many events in and on the water, the system also provides a continuous monitoring of the water quality to give more insight as input for those events (like diving, swimming and rowing races).

Although periodical checking of air and water quality is relevant to citizens, the key point of this project is sound level monitoring, which can be used to comply to the legal thresholds. When complaints are received, the Council can glance at the real sound levels instead of having to go there to measure it. This is where the most remarkable part of return of investment lies as well as when big amounts of data are collected and can be correlated with each other.

Quickness to find solutions

The City of Tilburg benefits from sensor data in two different ways: citizens and visitors can experience a clean and healthy environment and the Tilburg government provides access to real-time air and water quality data to demonstrates the commitment to their citizens. “Those living in the Piushaven neighborhood can stay informed about living conditions through the Smart Tilburg Dashboard. Additionally, Tilburg uses the data collected from sensors to create efficiencies in the way they work. Tilburg technicians no longer needs to be onsite in this neighborhood to test water and air quality or sound pollution. When complaints come in Tilburg Council can check the dashboard for real-time sound levels and with this data at their fingertips, can also reduce delays in response time”, Mark Damen, Innovation & IoT driver at Ericsson, states.

“Quickness to find solutions and in sorting out technical questions in the most satisfying way to fulfill customers’ needs are the most important reasons for the choice of Libelium as a partner” according to Ericsson’s Engineer Explorer and Engineer, Sergio Abreu.

Being Norway one of the world’s largest exporters of fish, activities such as trout and salmon spawn, which takes place from October to December in the Norwegian rivers, become crucial. As one of the first ThingFarm has developed an IoT solution for monitoring the water quality and conditions for living organisms, fishes and plants in rivers and sea.

Location of Oslo, Norway

Within the last months of the year, salmons and trouts spawn in rivers all over Norway. It is said that salmons have the ability of returning to their birth place to reproduce and spawn their eggs, guided by their sense of smell and chemistry of the river. To know if all parameters are adapted and stable for the fishes to spawn eggs, knowing the river and water conditions is of great value.

Thingfarm is a Norwegian company that has developed several IoT solutions with Libelium’s technology including a solution to monitor the water quality and a solution to monitor air environment. The solutions are installed in the surroundings of the city of Oslo.

The IoT solution ThingFarm Smart Water with Libelium’s Waspmote Plug&Sense! Smart Water has been installed in a small river in Oslo to monitor and predict river’s behavior and water quality. “The Connecting River Project” is monitoring water and water quality regarding the plants, fish and animals in the rivers in real-time and enables to find value in the data today, learn from the past and present in order to predict the future and make decisions that gives better outcomes for the environment.

Concurrently, a solution for air quality monitoring, ThingFarm Smart Air with Waspmote Plug&Sense Smart Environment PRO has been deployed in Oslo Centre for the “Connecting Air Project”. All this reflects the fact that Government Agencies of Norway are truly aware about how environment is affected by human activities.

Extreme cold conditions

Nodes have been exposed to extreme weather conditions during the coldest months, suffering temperatures below -22ºC and high level of humidity in their locations. Devices, which are solar powered, experienced lack of light during the Nordic winter, with only 6 hours of weak solar light energy. To face this, nodes where reconfigured to increase time between measurements so batteries can last longer, guaranteeing measurements.

ThingFarm is one of Libelium’s partners acting as integrator and end-to-end solution provider of IoT and machine learning. This company delivers IoT ready products including integrated solutions from connectivity, hardware, sensors and an IoT-platform built with business intelligence and machine learning that is compatible to existing systems.

The final aim of ThingFarm’s project is collecting information to control, foresee and act in situations and places of which environmental value is significant. Water ecosystems are some of the most affected by climate change and water pollution causes great damage every year to humans, animals and plants. Pollution is a major cause that species are endangered in the Norwegian nature.

Connecting River

Aquaculture sector is a fundamental business in Norwegian. Norwegian Salmon are raised and cared under strict regulations to assure food safety and clean taste and texture. The use of antibiotics is now marginal, colorants are not added and salmon diet is all natural. Consequently, preventing declines in biodiversity and protecting endangered and vulnerable species such as phytoplankton, crustaceans, benthic animals, aquatic plants, fouling algae and fish becomes essential. Water chemistry measurements will inter alia determine whether water has higher levels of nutrients as a result of the emissions from agriculture, industry or waste water from public and also to know the state and conditions in the sea, rivers and lakes.

ThingFarm Smart Water solution installet in Oslo

In this project, ThingFarm “Connecting River” sensors used with Libelium’s Waspmote Plug&Sense! Smart Water permit to obtain information about water temperature, pH, Oxidation-Reduction Potential (ORP), Conductivity and Dissolved Oxygen (DO) levels. This device has been installed in a river in Oslo and the water values are monitoring in real-time.

Connecting Air

ThingFarm has deployed an air quality monitoring station, ThingFarm Smart Air under the “Connecting Air Project”, promoted to Government Agencies of Norway. Waspmote Plug&Sense! Smart Environment PRO has been installed in Oslo city center. This IoT solution gives real-time information about the air quality conditions that can help the Air Department and Environmental Protection Agency to determine if air has higher pollution emissions from traffic that are causing health damage to pedestrians. Having this data automatically in their systems, authorities can consider actions to neutralize such effects, for instance closing traffic in areas of the center of Oslo during the rush-hours. Furthermore, it has been taken to bright assessment of Norwegian Parliament to being able to charge fee for all fuel cars based on pollution levels in the city center. ThingFarm Smart Air Solution monitors the contamination levels in real time and can document the effects of introducing such orders.

Air Quality measuring station at Oslo city center

Reducing pollution from traffic and industry using data for planning infrastructure and providing public information on Air Quality through the ThingFarm Smart City Air application are the main objectives of this projects. Parameters observed are air temperature, relative humidity, air pressure, Nitrogen Dioxide (NO₂), Carbon Monoxide (CO), Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) and Ozone (O₃).

Waspmote Plug&Sense! Smart Water and Waspmote Plug&Sense! Smart Environment PRO Sensor Platforms communicate with Meshlium IoT Gateway through 4G cellular connectivity. The data gathered by Meshlium is sent to ThingFarm‘s Cloud Computing Services and can be visualized in the scalable IoT-Platform of ThingFarm.

The ThingFarm platform has been built to be scalable and integrable and is easy to use. It includes flexible device connectivity options, rapid application development tools, scalable storage, and supports various deployment models. The IoT-Platform of ThingFarm adds machine learning feature in a way that software running behind can analyze data streams and help in predictions and decisions-making.

Water Quality – pH and Dissolved Oxygen values on ThingFarm Dashboard

Norway is a country highly committed with actions against climate change. Controlling environmental parameters allows public entities to compile real-time data from locations that can be far away from the reception center. The line of coast is longer than 25,000 km and distances North-South reach 1,700 kilometers, so this way transport and logistics costs are reduced and decision-makers can focus on maintenance of ecosystem values stable to fight against climate change.

Air Quality related parameters seen on ThingFarm Dashboard

ThingFarm‘s machine learning adds value to the solution thanks to direct experience or instructions, in order to look for patterns in data that helps making better decisions in the future. Data is being generated faster in time, generating a huge amount of information that needs to be processed and analyzed. IoT Platforms like ThingFarm’s work in the frame of machine learning to analyze big data and extract information automatically. “Time and quality have been the main motivations of ThingFarm choosing the hardware for their solutions. Besides, cooperation with Libelium has gone very well. Customer and consultancy services have been well received to set up a tailor made package based on our needs”, pointed out David Daud, COO at ThingFarm.
