Where are we now with satellite IoT, satellite M2M, and the IoT network market? Alastair MacLeod, CEO of Ground Control, joins Ryan Chacon on the IoT For All Podcast to discuss the current state of satellite IoT. They cover trends in the market, the challenges of satellite IoT implementation, how far away true satellite coverage for IoT is, deciding if satellite connectivity fits your use case, what to ask when researching satellite IoT, and what to look out for in satellite IoT. With an engineering background, Alastair MacLeod has spent the last 20 years in data/information services, deep tech, SaaS, and telecom-based roles, and since 2020, has ably led the 90+ strong team at Ground Control. He is a satellite IoT expert with a passion for solving remote connectivity challenges. Ground Control uses satellite and cellular technology to connect people and things - particularly hard-to-reach people and things. Their most popular IoT device is the RockBLOCK 9603, a compact, plug-and-play satellite transmitter. It's used by systems integrators and product developers to add satellite IoT connectivity capabilities to hundreds of devices, from drones to data buoys to weather stations. They've more recently launched the RockREMOTE and RockREMOTE Rugged; these devices use the Iridium Certus 100 service, which can be either IP- or message-based. Still designed for IoT applications, the Certus 100 service allows for much more data to be transmitted than the RockBLOCK, including compressed photographs, so it's being used for security applications, and where multiple sensors' data needs to be moved.  Discover more about satellites and IoT at https://www.iotforall.com More about Ground Control: https://www.groundcontrol.com Connect with Alastair: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alastairdgmacleod/  Key Questions and Topics from this Episode: (00:00) Welcome to the IoT For All Podcast(00:41) Introduction to Alastair and Ground Control(01:45) The state of satellite IoT(03:11) Trends in the market(05:34) Challenges of satellite IoT implementation(09:16) How far away is true satellite coverage for IoT?(12:42) Deciding if satellite connectivity fits your use case(14:40) What to ask when researching satellite IoT(17:37) What to look out for in satellite IoT(19:53) Learn more and follow up SUBSCRIBE TO THE CHANNEL: https://bit.ly/2NlcEwm​ Join Our Newsletter: https://www.iotforall.com/iot-newsletter Follow Us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/iotforall Check out the IoT For All Media Network: https://www.iotforall.com/podcast-overview
