LoRaWAN data collection in agriculture

Measurements from dispersed field sensors can reach farm operations with their location and time context intact

Farm sensors, a LoRaWAN gateway and an operations point.

A coherent view of dispersed measurements

Soil moisture, weather and greenhouse conditions change in different places. LoRaWAN-based collection is one possible way to connect field points that send small data packets. A local gateway and backhaul connection should deliver readings with the right location and timestamp.

What can it support?

  • Field measurement: observing selected soil, weather or facility conditions.
  • Data collection: designing radio coverage and power supply for measurement points.
  • Overview: showing trends and anomalies within the farm’s existing decision process.

Boundaries of the actual design

Sensor selection, coverage, frequency use, gateway and backhaul all depend on the site. No particular device configuration or automatic irrigation capability should be assumed from this solution direction alone.
