OpenChirp
An Open Source Platform for IoT with support for LoRaWAN
ABOUT

What is OpenChirp?

OpenChirp is a management framework for Low-Power Wide-Area Networks (LP-WAN) that provides data context, storage, visualization, and access control over the web. OpenChirp is currently powering a hosted LoRaWAN Network at Carnegie Mellon University that also spans large portions of the City of Pittsburgh. You can easily and freely add devices or LoRa gateways to our hosted network or spawn your own stand-alone instances. OpenChirp is tailored towards LoRaWAN, but supports any device capable of REST and/or MQTT networking.
