XiamenChina, 09/20/2022 /PRNewswire/ — milestonea global provider of AIoT solutions, announced thisthe deployment of indoor air quality (IAQ) monitoring solutions equipped with LoRaWAN technology at the provincial levelin collaboration with Assek Technology in Quebec public schools, in Canada. Measuring the concentration of carbon dioxide indoors (CO₂), relative humidity and temperature is part of a Quebec government’s strategic plan to ensure the best possible learning and working environment for students and school staff at all times. With actionable indoor air data, classrooms will be well ventilated and safe.

Encouraging results for 2 pilot projects

Two pilot projects have been conducted, providing solid and irrefutable evidence of the success of LoRaWAN technology^{and its rapid deployment in thousands of Quebec schools, Canada. For every pilot project}Milesight AM107 indoor air quality sensorswere quickly installed in about 30 classrooms, along with Assek’s software, which provides excellent tools for effectively monitoring classroom air quality. During the pilot projects, Semtech provided valuable and useful advice to Milesight to get a better response from the AM107 to the LinkADRReq command on the MAC sublayer, improving the compatibility of the sensors in this project.

Safer and easier maintenance of indoor air quality in public schools thanks to LoRaWAN technology

In these difficult times, LoRaWAN^{is a promising advanced technology. LoRaWAN devicesMeet all needs including data visualization, multi-environment monitoring, battery life, transmission speed and message reliability. Wireless solutions are ideal for modern or historic school buildings. For example 191 school classes Massey–Vanier were equipped with AM107 sensors and 208 IAQ sensors provided Louis Philippe Par School. In addition, it is exciting to observe how these old settlements implement digital indoor air monitoring, such as Our lady-de la Defense (established in 1933), Our Lady of the Snow (established 1918) etc.}

With comprehensive IAQ data, schools can now prioritize and take corrective action to improve the health of the learning and work environment. Additionally, the solution could soon be integrated with HVAC systems to automatically maintain standard IAQ. This is one of the first massive deployment projects of LoRaWAN technology^{to Canadaand he} to will surely serve as an example for other education systems in North America and around the world.
