Real-time Data

This page details data feeds from live sensors across the city, hosted on our real time data infrastructure.

You can view a list of available dashboards here: https://tick.thedata.place/grafana/

Our LoRaWAN network coverage map (pictured left) is here: https://tick.thedata.place/map/

We also have historic footfall data for Devonport and Central Parks available here: https://sandbox.thedata.place/footfall

Featured data

Our colleagues at Plymouth University have been taking environmental measurements in Central Park since the start of the project.

Here are a couple of real-time charts showing temperature and humidity at the Meadow Cafe in the centre of the park.

There are a lot more over on our main Grafana hub: https://tick.thedata.place/grafana/

Our infrastructure

Data is collected using a range of sensors in green spaces across the city.

This is transmitted over a city-wide LoRaWAN network, via The Things Network gateways and into a Node-red based processing engine.

Once captured, data is stored in a real-time database and displayed using Grafana dashboards.

Get involved!

If you're doing any kind of environmental measurements, citizen science or data collection and want to pool your data with ours, we'd love to have you on board!
