Developing an IoT Sensor Network for Civic Applications
summary
Port Adelaide Enfield libraries build a community LoRaWAN sensor network that actually sends live readings into a Raspberry Pi stack (Raspberry Pi running Node-RED, InfluxDB, Grafana) via LoRaWAN + The Things Network and MQTT. Hardware uses Arduino LoRaWAN shields, DRAGINO sensors (battery life up to ~10 years), and community or Meshed gateways; coverage is mapped with The Things Network Mapper and TTN Mapper. Two workshop series teach assembly and registration; data plots work, commercial turnkey options prove more costly and less flexible, and governance, spectrum limits and community acceptance remain open issues.
