aSTDz
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Open standards for structured IoT messaging over LoRa mesh networks.
aSTDz is a family of 11 binary codec standards for transmitting structured sensor and alert data over Meshtastic LoRa mesh networks. Each standard compresses domain-specific data into 51-222 byte payloads that travel 2-15 miles on a single radio hop with zero internet infrastructure. Receivers decode for free. No app, no account, no signup. Transmitter certification ensures trust.
