Is TTN a good fit for my use-case? (Monitoring, long-term)

How to get started

Hi everyone,

there is a gym in my local town, run by volunteers, without any internet access. I‘d like to place a few temperature/humidity sensors there as well as (optionally) a few thermostats and I wonder if TTN is a good fit for this purpose or whether I should look into other solutions. I hope you can give me some input here.

I live maybe 200m away and would be able to put up a LoRaWAN gateway. Two to three people should have access to the sensors (and the thermostats), ideally with a historic timeline and the possibility to trigger warnings (e.g. by mail) in certain circumstances.

Is this a use-case TTN is suitable for and is there ready-made software for this? I’ve got no issues doing an initial setup, but I am not interested in wiring my own dashboard software or having the whole setup depend on me being available for the long run (except maybe running the gateway).
