Tech Spotlight Series: Faradine Systems IoT sensors revolutionize information gathering for the military and government
By leveraging the capabilities of remotely monitored Internet of Things (IoT) sensor technologies, the US military can potentially empower tactical operators by allowing them to shift their focus from mundane, repetitive tasks. Instead of traveling to austere environments to check fuel gauges or some other metric that can be monitored

8 grant programs for acquiring interoperable, resilient mission-critical comms solutions
State and local government agencies are increasingly depending on mobile devices, including smartphones, for communication and data sharing during emergency and disaster response situations. However, for many of these organizations—such as law enforcement, emergency responders, and other first responders—the cellular networks they rely on can become unavailable when needed most.

Rising above the flames: How Urban Sky’s Microballoon is transforming wildfire management
Wildfire incidents are escalating in both frequency and intensity each year, wreaking havoc on ecosystems, displacing communities, and endangering countless lives. In fact, according to a study by Nature Ecology & Evolution, the number of extreme wildfires has more than doubled over the past two decades. The unpredictable behavior and

EVERYWHERE Communications – getting access to comms and situational awareness everywhere
Last month, goTenna and EVERYWHERE Communications announced a partnership that would integrate their solutions to enable assured access to situational awareness data from mobile mesh networks and the Iridium Satellite network to any location on Earth. The combined EVERYWHERE and goTenna solution will leverage two best-in-class technologies to connect tactical

Making the case for the Relay Health Manager – why remote is sometimes better (and safer!)
It’s universally accepted that communications are critical for the success of military, law enforcement, and emergency response missions. Voice, text, video, or data are needed to coordinate activities, request assistance, receive important information, and work collaboratively toward achieving the mission. As discussed previously on The Last Mile, communications aren’t always
