Climate change, urbanization, and the increasing frequency of natural disasters such as floods and forest fires demand that Indonesian cities adopt real-time, integrated, and reliable environmental monitoring systems. Within the context of smart cities, LoRaWAN technology offers wide coverage, low power consumption, and cost-efficient operations, making it highly relevant for city-scale multi-sensor monitoring systems. This study proposes the design of a LoRaWAN-based weather and disaster monitoring system architecture integrated into the smart city framework, while simultaneously adopting the IT governance principles of COBIT 2019. The methodology includes a literature review and the mapping of five COBIT domains (EDM03, APO03, BAI03, DSS02, MEA01) to LoRaWAN’s technical components, ranging from sensors, gateways, and network servers to application servers, dashboards, and public notification modules. The analysis demonstrates that the proposed design enhances data standardization, end-to-end security, monitoring, scalability, and device governance. The integration of COBIT 2019 further enables the optimization of risk management, monitoring effectiveness, incident response, and regulatory compliance. In conclusion, the proposed architecture provides a comprehensive framework to support resilient, adaptive, and sustainable smart cities. However, this architecture has not yet been implemented in practice, thus necessitating further implementation and evaluation to ensure the system’s effectiveness and sustainability in operational environment.
