Today's acquisitions. There were very few in the forest, but most of the equipment needed to start playing with finally arrived. Must make a note to myself to fry only the stuff on the left.

@szescstopni You could create a soil moisture sensor to alert you on the best time to do the stuff on the left.

Yum - chanterelles (or "Eierschwammerl" in my youth. Good memories...

@leogaggl We walk in the forest almost every day so we generally know when they appear, but this is the basic idea – put sensors all around. I live in wetlands that are quickly deteriorating and would like to know what's going on – perhaps data will help a bit in trying to save them.

@szescstopni Sounds magic to me. Grew up with forests, but now living in a much more arid climate in Australia. However, a lot of the challenges you mention are the same. Wetlands are severely degraded and need help. We have actually used LoRaWAN in that context in the past: gdf.org.au/mount-burr-wetland-

@leogaggl This is great. I have no experience with LoRaWAN, but I started out and won't be stopped too easily :) I live in wetlands that are regularly drained, on the border of a small national park. I plan to set up the gateway on my house and start monitoring water levels nearby, then progressing further. I might have a lot of questions :)

@szescstopni No worries. Happy to help! There were lots of learnings.
