ABSTRACT
Access to real-time weather data will provide valuable information for informed decision making. This impact extends to event planning, academic activities and security measures, thus contributing to a safer and more efficient environment. This project focuses on the development and implementation of a web application for monitoring meteorological variables, specifically temperature and humidity using LoRaWAN technology. The system integrates sensors, a Gateway and a management platform that combines various software tools. The architecture is based on LoRa, a wireless technology that allows long-range remote communications and low energy consumption. The LoRaWAN protocol facilitates secure bidirectional connections and is compatible with open-source solutions. In terms of security, the projectintegrates the TTN infrastructure (The Things Network) as well as its counterpart The Things Stack, which allows communication with the Internet without the need for mobile networks or WIFI. The system incorporates several key technologies: Node-Red as a programming environment, InfluxDB as a time series database, MQTT as a message sending protocol between server and application, Grafana as a data visualization and Docker-Compose as a container tool for these technologies.
