Matter is proud to pilot their storm water pit sensors with the City of Monash , a moderate sized council in Melbourne. Ambition: Teaming up with City of Monash for a storm water pit sensor trial, to track water levels, events and help with flood mitigation. Priority move: Trial sensing storm water pit information and displaying this on our Capture dashboard for convenient viewing. Matter Objectives: • provide measurement systems (Sense) • provide measurement data (Capture) • provide novel monitoring systems (inc CaptureOS) Preliminary results from the trial found:

Matter is excited to trial their storm water pit sensors in a pilot within the City of Port Phillip. The focus with be on the suburb of Ellwood where 13 sensors are bring deployed in order to gain a better understanding of water flow, events and how to manage the area. Ambition: Matter are trialing their sensors with the City of Port Phillip, to help with tracking events such as pit blockages in leafy residential suburbs. Priority move: Trial sensing storm water pit information and reviewing event data on the Capture dashboard to help with future pit management. Matter Objectives: • Identify and report on blocked pits • Reduce the need to manually check pits for blockages • Weather event notifications to allow for preemptive cleaning Preliminary results from the trial found:

Matter is proud to pilot their waste sensors with company Rawtec, a leading Australian waste consultancy in City of Charles Sturt. This trial commenced in October and is relatively new. Ambition: Rawtec and City of Charles Sturt are using Matter’s sensors mounted in 1100L and 660L bins to create weekly waste reports for residents in 2 large apartment blocks in Adelaide. Wanting to expand this trial out to other apartment blocks in Adelaide in the future. This is Matter’s first use case in Multi Unit development (MUD). Priority move: They are looking to track and reduce the landfill waste created in the apartment blocks, while increasing the recycling rate. Preliminary results from the trial found:

Together with the City of Stirling in Western Australia, Matter successfully implemented their waste sensing technology in the City’s high traffic public spaces to collect better data regarding waste collection and logistics. The goal of the project was to identify inefficiencies in waste collection processes, support smarter urban planning and allow for cleaner and tidier public spaces within the City. The project encompassed forty-five waste sensors at Trigg beach and Clarko Reserve. Matter installed volumetric waste sensors in each public bin within the project site, while the corresponding data collected from the sensors was managed through the Capture platform - a web-based application providing near real-time information about waste levels. Preliminary results from the trial found:

Matter is proud to share the findings of this waste sensing pilot with the City of Gosnells, which – as far as we know – is Australia’s first NBIoT wheelie bin sensing trial. The pilot deployed 50 sensors across a number of the City’s parks. The sample size is small but the locations are well spread. A number of Key Findings came out of the trial, one of the most vital being that substantial time/labour savings could be achieved through operational efficiencies i.e. checking/emptying only ‘full’ bins. Preliminary results from the trial found:

The City of Perth awarded a contract to Matter after a competitive open market tender. Tenders were issued November 2019. Tender was awarded August 2020. As a result of the trial, the City has purchased an additional set of sensors to expand coverage. The City liked Matter’s ongoing R&D, additional analytics dashboards, route optimisation upgrades and new sensor options to expand the use case set. 2022 results from the trial found:
