When a large area coverage is the key application, localization and tracking techniques are facing challenges on current Internet of Things (IoT) scenario, mainly regarding areas with critical propagation environments or tracking mobile objects, such as in agriculture and cattle farming. In order to achieve a good communication solution, Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) protocols offer different solutions profiles. As such, this paper presents the design and deployment of a solution based on Long Range (LoRa) modulation protocol to attend localization and tracking applications using only one base station and so, a GPS device to provide the coordinates to be transmitted. The proposal is evaluated, demonstrated, and validated in a real scenario and it is ready for use.
