Advantages of LoRaWAN Star-on-Star vs. LTE, GSM, NB-IoT, CAT-M1 and others:

• Extend wireless network coverage 10+ km past existing LTE, GSM, NB-IoT, CAT-M1 coverage with LoRaWAN LTE gateways

• LoRaWAN gateway affordability ensures deployment of double and triple-redundant wireless networks affordably due to its Star-on-Star approach vs. mesh networking.

• Meteorological sensor nodes communicate with multiple gateways, ensuring reliability of wireless data transmission and interference resistance. In case of a gateway failure, data is automatically rerouted via other gateways.

• LoRaWAN networks allow the addition of unlimited nodes without rebuilding the wireless infrastructure.

• LoRaWAN networks naturally permit network expansion and do not require trained personnel in the field to support network operation since gateways act as only message forwarders (data pass-through) and sensor nodes do not join/pair with gateways, but directly with the application running at the Met Department.

WMO Precision Wireless LoRaWAN Meteorological Sensors

For meteorological network building to the highest WMO measurement standards.

• MeteoWind® IoT Pro exceeds WMO/NWS standards by 5X, making it maintenance free for a lifetime.

• MeteoHelix® IoT Pro meets WMO/NWS standards and due to its helical shield is maintenance free for 2X longer than any other temperature humidity sensor solution.

• MeteoRain® IoT Compact is designed for high-density deployment and affordability. Its measuring mechanism is more accurate than any other rain gauge under 1000 EURO. Soon to be released MeteoRain® IoT Pro with a larger and taller collector bucket will exceed all WMO and NWS measurement standards.
