The municipality of Moosseedorf maintains numerous infrastructures that are continuously monitored. In a municipality, many facilities and infrastructures need to be monitored constantly. This is also true for Moosseedorf, a Swiss municipality with around 3,500 inhabitants. Until now, disturbances were recorded directly on the respective facility and transmitted via 2G SMS to the responsible person. This technology is outdated, and Moosseedorf has been looking for a new solution.

Ultimately, the municipality opted for a smart and unique solution on the Switzercloud with LoRaWAN technology. The previous transmission modules were replaced with LoRaWAN® devices. As soon as a facility detects a disturbance, it is sent via the municipality's own LoRaWAN to the Switzercloud and processed there. From now on, the escalation ladder defined with Moosseedorf will come into play.The Switzercloud can send SMS, make calls with voice messages, acknowledge alarms, and much more. Ideally, the system can be remotely restarted by the Switzercloud, and everyone receives a confirmation when everything is functioning properly again. This can potentially prevent an on-site visit.

The system monitors the cooling systems in the beach pool, wastewater levels in pumping stations, heating malfunctions in school buildings, and issues with wood chip heating systems.
