Around the World of IoT/Climate Monitoring Using Internet of X-Things

In this column we plan to take a tour around different physical locations in the world with the objective of highlighting the peculiarities of the trendiest IoT-related applications in selected regions. Thus, the “IoT World” will certainly be physical, but traveling around it shall also expose to the readers how different application domains have been addressed, with particular attention to business sustainability. Global climate change is significantly affecting life on planet Earth. Predicting timely changes in the climate is a big challenge and requires great attention from the scientific community. Research now suggests that using the Internet of X-things (X-IoT) helps in monitoring global climate change.
