Services & Process
WZ-IT provides end-to-end IoT services: from initial analysis and conception through platform design, hardware selection, LoRaWAN network deployment, and custom app development to fully managed operations. Whether it is cycling infrastructure monitoring or urban environmental sensing, we cover the entire project lifecycle.
We start with a requirements analysis and technical conception tailored to your use case. From there we design the platform architecture, select suitable hardware, deploy the LoRaWAN network, develop custom dashboards or apps, and take over ongoing managed operations.
Yes. We develop custom web apps, mobile apps, and dashboards using React, Next.js, and React Native, and then operate the entire stack including ChirpStack, ThingsBoard, Grafana, and Node-RED as a managed service.
LoRaWAN & Hardware
We primarily select Milesight gateways and sensors, which offer proven reliability for both urban environments in Münster and the expansive agricultural areas of the Münsterland. Hardware selection is always tailored to the specific deployment scenario.
Yes. LoRaWAN achieves ranges of several kilometers in open fields, making it ideal for precision farming and soil monitoring across the Münsterland. We plan gateway positioning for optimal coverage and deploy the complete network infrastructure.
Yes. We handle the full on-site deployment including radio coverage analysis, gateway mounting, antenna alignment, and network server configuration. This applies to city locations, university campuses, and rural sites alike.
Platform & Development
Our core stack includes ChirpStack for LoRaWAN network management, ThingsBoard (Community and Professional Edition) for device management and multi-tenant dashboards, Grafana for real-time visualization, and Node-RED for data flow automation.
Yes. We develop tailored web apps with React and Next.js, mobile apps with React Native, and custom dashboards for specific use cases like bike traffic counting, campus building management, or agricultural monitoring.
Yes. ThingsBoard PE's multi-tenant architecture allows isolated dashboards, role-based permissions, and separate data views for different city departments, research groups, or agricultural cooperatives.
Hosting & Security
All IoT platforms run on hardened servers in German data centers. This ensures full GDPR compliance and data sovereignty for Münster's municipalities, universities, and agricultural operations.
We use TLS encryption for all data in transit, automatic backups, hardened Linux servers, and continuous monitoring. For sensitive research or municipal data, additional VPN-secured connections are available.
We offer SLA tiers with availability guarantees up to 99.9%, including redundant infrastructure, automatic failover, and proactive monitoring. This ensures reliable operation for both smart city services and long-running research projects.
Getting Started & Terms
Contact us for a no-obligation initial consultation. We discuss your requirements, assess the technical landscape, and outline a project roadmap covering everything from conception and hardware selection to platform development and managed operations.
A typical end-to-end project - from analysis through LoRaWAN deployment and app development to go-live - takes between 4 and 12 weeks depending on scope. Pilot setups with standard hardware can be operational within days.
We offer flexible contract terms starting from monthly agreements, with discounts for annual commitments. All contracts include managed operations, updates, backups, and a dedicated contact person for your project.

“WZ-IT provided very competent support in implementing our server and virtualization infrastructure. As part of the project, a Proxmox-based virtualization environment was set up along with a virtual machine for our application systems. Additionally, a structured backup concept was implemented. A particular focus was on security: the setup of a VPN tunnel and the clean implementation of encryption and access concepts were professionally executed. The structured consulting as well as the reliable and swift implementation deserve special mention. We are very satisfied with the services provided and are happy to recommend WZ-IT.”

“We have had very good experiences with Mr. Wevelsiep and WZ-IT. The consultation was professional, clearly understandable, and at fair prices. The team not only implemented our requirements but also thought along and proactively. Instead of just processing individual tasks, they provided us with well-founded explanations that strengthened our own understanding. WZ-IT took a lot of pressure off us with their structured approach - that was exactly what we needed and is the reason why we keep coming back. (translated)”
