The MinFarm API and Dashboard allows customers to easily operate and manage remote offshore deployments of MF ATEX zone 0/1 LoRaWAN Pressure Gauge / Sensor and a MinFarm LoRaWAN™ Satellite Gateway from the customer shore based office (Download the API documentation).

MinFarm REST API

The MinFarm REST API is a fully documented API and provides a wide range of downlink telemetry and command parameters for secure and low cost management over satellite of all aspects of the offshore deployment. This includes:

  • LoRaWAN® device management over satellite (what devices can send uplinks) 
  • Satellite terminal and teleport configuration (This will come preconfigured)
  • Remote device firmware updates over satellite (firmware updates, security patches)
  • Unpacking of field device payload into raw pressure data 
  • Downlink commands to MinFarm LoRaWAN™ Satellite Gateway and LoRaWAN® sensors (e.g. change alert configurations on a sensor, change satellite data transmission interval)
  • Secure hosting of offshore LoRaWAN™ pressure sensor data on MinFarm Server secure web-based platform 
  • Forwarding of payload data for secure access by customer via a customer operated Dashboard (See Transmission Data Flow and Security Architecture above). 

Customer Shore Based Dashboard

The Customer Dashboard has secure access to offshore LoRaWAN™ pressure sensor data. Data can be retrieved via a Graphical User Interface (GUI) utilising simple to follow steps.
