Sigfox device tracking

Show on a map the position history of any sigfox device, with a NodeJS/HAPI simple web server

How

• Fetch data using the Sigfox API
• Rely the Sigfox Atlas network-based geolocation service to retrieve position history
• Display data on an OpenStreetMap map, using Leaflet

Setup

Get a Sigfox device

If you do not have a Sigfox device yet, the easier way is to buy one the compatible Development Kits.

They all come with included access to the full Sigfox service.

Retrieve your Sigfox API Credentials

Complete guide available here

• Login to your Sigfox Cloud account
• Navigate to your Group, and enter the API Access menu

Create an API credentials pair. You will need DEVICES_MESSAGES[R] rights at least.

Set up your Sigfox Geolocation service

To get your device's position computed, you first need to set up a Geoloccallback. It can be either a push to an URI, or an email.
