The Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionised the way we interact with and gather information from our surroundings. By connecting everyday objects to the internet and enabling them to communicate with each other, IoT has unleashed a torrent of valuable data that is reshaping industries and enhancing our understanding of the world. One of the most compelling aspects of IoT is its ability to generate copious amounts of data, much of which holds immense potential for geospatial analysis.
IoT devices, ranging from smart thermostats and wearable fitness trackers to industrial sensors and GPS-enabled vehicles, continuously collect data about their environment. This data can include information on temperature, humidity, location, movement, and more (see live example below). When aggregated and analysed, this wealth of geospatial data can provide invaluable insights for businesses, governments, researchers and individuals.
Geospatial analysis involves studying the spatial relationships and patterns within data to make informed decisions. IoT data enhances this analysis by adding real-time and location-specific dimensions. For example, in agriculture, IoT sensors placed in fields can monitor soil moisture levels and weather conditions, aiding farmers in optimising irrigation and crop management. In logistics, IoT-equipped vehicles can provide precise location data, helping companies optimise routes, reduce fuel consumption, and improve delivery times. All things ideally suited for deploying with ArcGIS.
Moreover, IoT-enabled geospatial analysis is transforming urban planning, disaster response, and environmental monitoring. It allows cities to optimise traffic flow, emergency services to respond more effectively to crises, and scientists to track climate change and wildlife habitats.
IoT really is a game-changer when it comes to generating valuable geospatial data. As the IoT ecosystem continues to expand and evolve, the potential for geospatial analysis to drive innovation and address complex challenges across various domains is boundless. Harnessing the power of IoT data in geospatial analysis holds the promise of creating smarter, more efficient, and sustainable solutions for a better future.

Below is a live feed from 9 environmental sensors published to ArcGIS Online. The sensors are connected to the Spark IoT Bridge, with a FME process utilising a webhook to obtain the data. We are able to pull data from multiple IoT platforms and brokers via API's, webhooks or other connection mechanisms.
