The Challenge

Traditional remote monitoring solutions are often complex to deploy, expensive to maintain, and limited by connectivity options. Organizations like WYDOT and environmental agencies need a more accessible, cost-effective way to monitor remote assets and collect environmental data. Additionally, existing solutions typically lack user-friendly interfaces and flexible data sharing options.

The Solution

Developed a comprehensive monitoring platform that revolutionizes remote sensor deployment and management. The system features a streamlined sensor registration process using unique sensor IDs and codes for instant configuration. Built using React and Node.js for the frontend with Django and PostgreSQL handling the backend, the platform supports both NTN satellite and cellular connectivity to ensure reliable data transmission from any location. Implemented a dual-dashboard system allowing organizations to maintain private sensor networks while selectively sharing data through a public interface.
