Bridge software for receiving airborne particulate matter data from TheThingsNetwork and forwarding it to sensor.community, opensense

Forwarding to sensor.community and other dashboards is controlled through TTN device attributes, which can be configured for each device in the TheThingsNetwork console:

• sensor.community
  • attribute 'senscom-id' contains the sensor.community hardware id
• opensense.org
  • attribute 'opensense-id'

Several data encodings are supported:

• Cayenne encoding, PM is encoded as analog data, PM10 in channel 1, PM2.5 in channel 2, PM4.0 in channel 4 and PM1.0 in channel 0.
• JSON encoding, the configuration file specifies how JSON fields map to measurement properties
• SPS30 encoding, a custom encoding for SPS30 sensors, includes the particle count

Experimental support for Helium LoRaWAN, NB-IOT. Possible future support for Sigfox.

The application requires an application API key with the following individual rights:

• View devices in application
• View application information
• Read application traffic (uplink and downlink)

Make sure to copy/save it to another place immediately after creating in on the TTN console.
