In this case, satellite connection devices designed, deployed and operated by i2CAT\u2014which also contributed, together with Sateliot, in the implementation of the communication protocols between sensors and nanosatellite\u2014allowed the sending to Enxaneta of data from the IoT sensors of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.icgc.cat\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cartographic and Geological Institute of Catalonia<\/a> (ICGC) located in vineyard cultivation lands located at high altitudes of complicated orography with little or no terrestrial network coverage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.8&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.8&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.8&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><b>2.
