How DMC Leverages ThingsBoard for IoT Success

At DMC, our software consulting services encompass a wide range of technologies, and ThingsBoard is one of the many tools we use to deliver top-notch IoT solutions.

AirVac Vacuum Sewer Systems

For AirVac, a subsidiary of Aqseptance Group, we utilized ThingsBoard to develop a custom IoT dashboard for managing vacuum sewer systems. The project involved real-time telemetry data and a detailed vacuum station dashboard, demonstrating ThingsBoard’s robust visualization capabilities.

The Device Map Dashboard allows an operator to easily view all their deployed devices and any active alarms or relevant telemetry on them.

Live telemetry plots with adjustable time ranges are incredibly simple to implement in Thingsboard as shown below.

More Traditional SCADA style dashboards can be implemented as well as shown below.

Why Choose ThingsBoard for Your IoT and Software Development Needs

Data Visualization

One of the key strengths of ThingsBoard is its powerful data visualization tools. The platform’s built-in widgets and customizable dashboards allow for real-time monitoring and analysis, making it easier to gain actionable insights from your IoT data.
