Overview

SimLoRaIndoor helps you plan the placement of LoRaWAN gateways in buildings. Starting from architectural floor plans, it lets you:

  • Import plans from PDF files or images.
  • Assign each plan to a building floor and configure floor-slab attenuation.
  • Calibrate a real-world scale on any plan.
  • Draw or auto-detect walls and assign RF attenuation values.
  • Place LoRaWAN gateways and visualise radio coverage per floor.
  • Combine gateways from multiple floors for true 3D coverage simulation.

The application runs entirely locally — no account or internet connection is required.
