Setting up LoRa and cellular gateways
The GPS collars need to communicate via LoRa wireless to fixed stations (gateways) and these communicate via the cellular network to the internet. At our first field site we set up three gateways and these have been monitored for a month to check the solar panels are charging the batteries sufficiently and that the LoRa and cellular communication is working. Jagath has been checking these from Sri Lanka and so far the system is working well.
