Map out the Global LoRaWAN® Coverage with SenseCAP T1000-A Tracker
Have you ever wanted to access real-time coverage of public LoRaWAN® networks and find the best location to deploy your LoRaWAN® devices? Introducing the SkyNet IoT LoRaWAN Coverage Map, developed by our partner SkyNet IoT. It’s a neutral global coverage map for connected public, private, commercial, and decentralized (DePIN) LoRaWAN® networks, including SkyNet IoT direct, Helium IoT, ThingsIX, Crankk.IO, and others (to come). Built on a foundation of SkyNet IoT’s strategically placed gateways, supplemented by multiple other networks, this coverage map showcases the real-time infrastructure of robust and adaptable global LoRaWAN® networks.

About SkyNet IoT LoRaWAN Coverage Map
SkyNet IoT global IoT LoRaWAN gateway map provides a real-time overview of the LoRaWAN® access points and networks connected to SkyNet IoT. With over one million connected access points across various networks, SkyNet IoT is now one of the largest global neutral Internet of Things multi-LoRaWAN® network and hosting providers.
To further support the decentralized initiative, the SkyNet IoT team has made it accessible to the entire community, inviting them to contribute to mapping a broader network coverage worldwide. The Coverage and Mapping Map (BETA) is an open project, and the team has sent out invites to developers to map out the global LoRaWAN® Network at no network cost using cost-effective tracker devices, including our SenseCAP T1000-A.
How to Get Involved and Contribute

SkyLab, SkyNet IoT, and their partners have hundreds of SenceCAP T1000 devices in use for multiple projects, ranging from panic and service buttons to track-and-trace assets operations. These operations take place indoors, over land, sea, and even through the air, from and to different continents. Everyone is highly enthusiastic about the product.
“The T1000-A is, in our experience, the smallest, most effective, and most affordable solution for accurately measuring and mapping LoRaWAN coverage. While other specific mapping solutions often cost significantly more and typically provide data based on a single snapshot, the T1000-A, combined with SkyNet IoT mapping, offers a more detailed and reliable representation of reality. This mapping solution allows for the construction of a hexagon using up to 49 measurements, with the average being projected and continuously updated in the heatmap, resulting in a realistic, normalized, and more accurate depiction of actual coverage. The T1000-A Tracker is an exceptional device for tracking and a valuable tool for LoRaWAN® network coverage mapping. ” said Remy de Jong Sr, the founder of SkyNet IoT.
We encourage you to pick up your T1000-A Tracker and join this exciting journey of exploration. If you don’t have a T1000-A Tracker yet, you can purchase one for just $35.91 now. The first 100 orders will be available at 10% off using the coupon code ‘SkyNetIoT,’ and you can contribute to building the GLOBAL LoRaWAN® Network Coverage Map.

Thanks for the share about that website but would have been a lot more interesting with TTNMapper that is truly open and shared and doesn’t enforce to share personal datas for doing mapping 😉
Hi Vincèn, You’re right; we initially made efforts to collaborate, but unfortunately, there was no interest. That’s why we decided to do it better and differently ourselves, using the knowledge and expertise we’ve built over more than a decade.
Regarding personal data, we handle it carefully according to the applicable guidelines. Unlike others, we do not display the exact locations of mappers and/or gateways. The registration is solely intended to securely deliver personal live mapping access and to enable communication if necessary.
We aim to prevent, unlike others, anonymous sources from providing incorrect, unreliable, or dubious data that deviates from reality. Our coverage map data is more realistic because each hexagon is built from dozens of data points and is limited to specific devices with a low spreading factor.
