Introduction


At The Things Conference we ran a workshop on how to contribute coverage measurements to TTN Mapper. To our own shock it is a slight learning curve to get The Things Node up and running. This tutorial will hopefully summarize the steps to follow to get The Things Node (or Uno) ready for mapping with TTN Mapper.
