Deploying Indoor/Outdoor Asset Tracking Solutions w/The Things Stack
summary
Digital Matter presents concrete deployables: a Yabby Edge LoRaWAN tracker that swaps always-on GPS for an ultra‑low‑power GNSS + Wi‑Fi scanner to extend battery life while relying on cloud-based solving, plus a device repository entry and LoRa Alliance QR onboarding that let The Things Stack v3 provision devices via API keys and a webhook. The location engine solves GNSS/Wi‑Fi/cell fixes, pushes JSON to third‑party HTTP endpoints, manages bi‑directional almanac updates every two weeks, and claims military‑grade encryption and resilience; company data cites 1M devices and 1,500+ integrations.
