Herman and LoRa make a great team

This LoRa equipment helps to collect and transmit data from anywhere sensors are placed, whether on rhino, vehicles, humans or even weather stations. Already used in Hluhluwe-iMfolozi park this kit is now being fitted in parks in Mozambique. Knowing the distances over which this equipment can receive data is vital to work out how many and where these LoRa receivers, or gateways, need to be placed. Mountains, for example, can block the signal. Dense forest can slow the signal. So, these coverage maps Herman is producing are invaluable for planning purposes.
