About Smart Parks
Smart Parks is a social enterprise based in Utrecht and we provide technology solutions for the protection of wildlife, with a strong focus on keystone species.
In short: we want to make it possible for parks to communicate with all wildlife and assets inside a protected wildlife area (animals, rangers, vehicles, equipment etc.). We do this by creating networks based on suitable communication technology, whether that being LoRaWAN, WiFi, Narrowband IoT or something else. In those networks, we place sensors on animals, rangers and other assets that give us information about their whereabouts. All this information is fed into a control room application, providing park management with more situational awareness that leads to actionable intelligence.
We have deployed the first Smart Parks two years ago on a small scale in Mkomazi, Tanzania where we managed to be the first to put LoRaWAN sensors inside the horn of an Eastern Black Rhino. Since then, we have built Smart Parks in Malawi, Tanzania, Rwanda, Kenya, India, Zambia, Namibia and the Netherlands and are working with partners such as African Parks, Peace Parks, WWF and many others. With the rapidly evolving industry around the Internet of Things, we are now also capable of providing parks the capability to detect gunshots with acoustic sensors, recognize intruders with smart cameras that work with machine learning and it’s a matter of time before we can measure animal health status remotely as well.
We also launched opencollar.io in order to create Open Source tracking collars for a variety of species.
Our aim is to create networks and deploy sensors in conjunction with local staff. Over time we want local staff to learn the skills to implement new technologies for conservation. We believe that’s the only way to this can be done sustainably.
My colleagues at the Center for Information Security and Trust, https://cist.dk/ - here at IT University of Copenhagen,Denmark, want to dedicate a project to LPWAN/LoRaWAN security and have a 1-year (so far) opening for a research assistant … They write:
"Want a job working on LPWAN/LoRaWAN security? At ITU we are starting a project to gather statistics and improve the security of IoT deployments and are currently looking for research assistants. Contact us for details if interested! " <== which you could do here, if interested.

innius started life as a research project back in the beginning of 2015. The project looked into how to leverage extensive experience in building software for the manufacturing sector by using the emerging trends at that time like big data, cloud computing, mobile, social and IoT. The team and project evolved quickly. By May 2016, the project had delivered a working product to its first customer. innius was born. Since then, innius has been in a state of continual improvement and development. In April 2019, innius became an independent company and the Van Mourik Group became a strategic investor.
innius is already a front runner in the emerging Industrial IoT market and they want to maintain that position. One of the founding principles behind innius was Domain Driven Design. Their Domain: Industrial Machinery is the leading factor in what innius is and the direction it’s going in. As the industry moves to adopt this type of new technology, the domain itself will evolve. The cycle of development continues in both its language and needs.
The innius team is small enough (10 people) to work efficiently and collaborate closely, but large enough to have seasoned professionals on board in their respective fields. And to ensure a healthy work/life balance for everyone. Structurally, innius is quite flat and adopts the scrum agile methodology, working in cycles of two-week sprints, combined with a process of continual deployment. innius provides a good balance between personal freedom and accountability.

HI, I’m not sure if this is the right place to ask or even if i’m allowed to ask…but…
I’m looking for someone that can create me a quick integration with a device to a web page. In simple terms i have my own Enterprise server hosted at AWS, i have a Bosch parking senor connected to a dedicated application and I’m receiving data as expected, well according to the Bosch documentation anyway.
What i’m after is a very simple web page that shows the current state ( occupied or free ) of the sensor graphically, just a simple green or red box will do.
If anyone on here can do this for me please get in touch, PM is fine, ask some questions if you have any and give me an idea of cost. Looking to get the work done as soon as i can really.
