01Deployment scenarios

3 ways the grid is deployed here.

From the sector research, each with the observatory template that serves it where one exists.

Template · mine-5g

Mine-wide private LTE or 5G with environmental sensing

Autonomy communications plus dust, blast vibration, slope and tailings monitoring.

Sensors & instruments · Connectivity

Template · methane-fenceline

Continuous methane monitoring

Fenceline sensors and optical gas imaging under regulatory leak-detection cadences.

Sensors & instruments

02Proof

What buyers ask to see.

The evidence a procurement in this sector asks for, from the sector research. Each item is produced by the grid as a record, not written up afterwards.

  • Latency and jitter test reports
  • Redundancy design
  • Equipment-maker interoperability
  • Spectrum licence
  • Industrial cybersecurity (ISA/IEC 62443)
  • Hazardous-area equipment ratings
  • Uptime service levels
  • Reference sites

03Participation

Where communities can host the grid.

Community

Join the community

One account for every community, platform and the Nexus Observatory app.
Open data

Use the open networks

Public observing networks on their own terms, ready to reuse.
Hosting

Host a station

Tell us about a site; we bring the survey, the design and the crew.

05Search terms and open work

How the sector names the problem.

The terms buyers and programmes use, and open projects in the space, named as factual references only. Naming a project is not an endorsement or a relationship.
