ITDRC: Wireless communications in disaster struck areas

Remember during Hurricane Maria when you could see “LTE Bars” in your phone, or other weird symbols that may indicate signal availability, but still had no internet connection? Want to learn why? Want to be prepared and learn how to stay connected during an potential future emergency like “Maria”?

Part of the “Meshing with Data 2018 Hackathon” Workshop series, this event will be a discussion on VSATS and Mesh Networks. Lectured by D.A. Kouns Chief of Operations for ITDRC in Puerto Rico.

Come and learn about alternative methods of staying connected and creating communication networks when disaster strikes! Are you an application developer? Do you design for data management dependent on cloud hosted databases? Come learn about the type of infrastructure that’s required for designing peer to peer applications or “local services”.
