The Things Conference - 1, 2 and 3 February 2018

Hi,

is anyone going in the direction Rotterdam-Dordrecht at the end of conference DAY 1 by car and would give me a lift ? anyone taking a train ?
I am planning transportation now (train , bus, lift, taxi)

Since lots of people from all over the world will fly to AMS, it’d be fun to visualize all this in a collaborative map (where we come from and where we’re staying in AMS and places to go during the stay, etc)

So @htdvisser prepared a shared map here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1aoDVULXRRx_39ioe-YSI6EtCdABUsKBp

Anyone know of the conference is live streaming or recorded, would love to have made it but work commitments :sob:

For everyone that arrived to Amsterdam today already :

Join us for a drink near the conference area tonight :beers:

Nothing fancy. Just a way to already get in touch with fellow LoRaWAN Experts.

Pacific Parc

Where: Polonceaukade 23

From 8pm onwards

How to find fellow conference members? Just look around and find the people that are talking about geeky stuff!

What? no tracker TTN Mapper on everyone? Such a shame :slight_smile:

Wouldn’t such rapid transmission violate the fair access policy?

:rofl:

Have a great time you lucky people :slight_smile:
Please post how it goes

There was also an interesting workshop about wifi localisation with TTN.
With a Wemos controllor board and a RFM95 lora module we succeeded in visualising with NodeRed our GPS location on the Google maps (hotel WestCord at 500m from the Rigakade10).

Many thanks Frank Beks for the tutorial and code !
