      "caveat": "The 2019 start date is the network operator's own account of when it began building the infrastructure. The two companies are sister utilities of the municipal Wiener Stadtwerke group, so this is the builder describing its own timeline; no outside source dates the start independently. Actility's June 2023 release describes the network as still \"undergoing a testing process\" at that point, with scalable use cases expected from early 2024 — so the years between 2019 and 2023 covered infrastructure build-out rather than services in use.",

Wien Energie describes the same deployment under the heading \"Digitale Innovation bei der MA 48: Mulden-Tracking in Echtzeit\" and states \"Jede Mulde ist nun über die Wien Digital Echtzeitdatenplattform der Stadt Wien auffindbar.\" This ties the waste application to this network rather than to a separate one.",
