Minutes
Visiting the Hot-spot
The hot-spot has been established, and costs around USD 300, including a solar panel, the solar/battery controller, battery, USB chargers for phones/tablets and light. Given the infrastructure sharing with Telecom operators into the village, we expect to re-use the mobile tower to distribute Internet to hot-spots being as long as 7 km away. These Wifi hot-spots will be typically placed where people meet, e.g. health spots, schools, market places, governmental buildings.
In the DigI project we have established information material, and currently perform the site survey to establish the connectivity to 3 villages (Phase A) and later on 10 villages (Phase B). Please read more at: DigI:TT1.3
Due to snow and bad light conditions, the battery of the pilot installation lacks power. Thus no content could be shown at the hot-spot. However, the first version of the content is available at http://digi.futurecompetence.net
