This case study describes the Cape Agulhas Municipality's (CAM) transition toward a "Smart City 2.0" by implementing a smart groundwater monitoring and management system. To replace costly and inefficient manual monitoring of boreholes and reservoirs, CAM deployed a municipal-wide LoRaWAN Internet of Things (IoT) network. The project, piloted in Suiderstrand, uses real-time sensors and variable speed drives (VSDs) to improve resource oversight, reduce operational costs, and lower carbon emissions.
