Software

LoRa Basics™

LoRa Basics help developers bring LoRa-based applications to market faster. The software building blocks assist solution developers in quickly realizing the return on investment (ROI) their customers want. All LoRa Basics releases are available on Semtech’s LoRa Developer Portal as open source.

LoRa Basics MAC: provides the firmware an end-device developer needs to get LoRaWAN-based radios up and running
LoRa Basics Station: a new LoRaWAN-based gateway packet forwarder with secure and robust data communication and remote gateway management protocols

Cloud Services

LoRa Cloud™ Services will deliver easy to use tools for solution providers to deliver value more rapidly with less development overhead.

LoRa Cloud Geolocation: This service enables developers to quickly build IoT solutions which leverage multi-modal location capabilities (including Wi-Fi, GNSS and LoRaWAN-based geolocation) without taking on the development complexity (and repetition) involved in building a solution from scratch. The service is designed from the outset to support flexibility in deployment options, cost effectiveness and ease of use.

Network Servers

A free, non-commercial LoRaWAN network server is an opportunity for companies to explore innovative use cases and have a secure area to evaluate their LoRa-based applications. Users will be able to test key capabilities, including on-boarding gateways, view sensor data log and network activity, and forward data to an application server for visualization and processing compliant with the LoRaWAN specification. Semtech’s free demonstration network server is available at the links below.
