Improving Connectivity for Remote Forestry Operations
Forestry operations take place in remote and challenging environments where reliable connectivity is limited. This session will explore how IoT, private 5G networks, and real-time data collection can improve forestry logistics, safety, and efficiency. Learn how enhanced communication enables remote support for machine operators, real-time monitoring of forest conditions, and emergency response services. These technologies help operators work smarter, safer, and more sustainably in the field.
Optimizing Livestock Transport with Digital Solutions
Transporting livestock requires precision, efficiency, and good animal welfare. This session will focus on how conceptual digital tools and connectivity solutions improve transport planning, reduce delays, and enhance monitoring during loading, transit, and unloading. Learn about new concepts in sensor-based health tracking, AI-driven logistics, and improved communication systems that support smoother operations and better conditions for animals.
