The team won the SA People\u2019s Choice Award and received an Honourable Mention in a NSW Category, with national and international awards yet to be announced. The entry: &#8216;FireWater &#8211; Showing firefighters the fastest route to real-time available water&#8217;, makes use of the Adelaide The Things Network for real-time water level monitoring. The project has sparked a close collaboration with the Surveying and Spatial Science Institute (SSSI) who are hosting the &#8216;SSSI FireWater Map-a-thon&#8217; on 31 October, 2020 to encourage GIS specialists worldwide to enhance the Growing Data Foundation FireWater application.<\/p><p>The Growing Data Foundation is currently involved in a number of other LoRaWAN related projects in partnership with other government agencies and not-for-profit organisations. These include: wetland level monitoring with the Nature Trust Glenelg and an IoT project involving a group of Riverland High Schools, sponsored by the Loxton Waikerie Council.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Growing Data Foundation supports open projects and systems and, in particular, the development of sustainable open solutions for community improvement and social good.
