Getting Started
RIoT is an industrial-grade platform for deploying networked sensor arrays in harsh field environments. It handles the full lifecycle — from field device data collection through cloud processing to a real-time web dashboard for visualization and fleet management.
Signing In
Navigate to your organization's RIoT dashboard URL and sign in with your Google account. Your administrator will have already added your email to the organization's allowed users list.
After signing in, you'll land on the dashboard home page showing an overview of your organization's devices, locations, and recent sensor activity.
Key Concepts
Data Hierarchy
RIoT organizes data in a strict hierarchy. Every sensor reading belongs to exactly one path through this tree:
Organization
└── Location
└── Area
└── Device
└── Sensor Reading
Organization — Top-level isolation boundary. All data, users, and devices belong to a single organization.
Location — A physical site (plant, facility, well pad).
Area — A logical or physical subdivision within a location (production zone, building wing, pipeline segment).
Device — A registered field unit. Each device has a unique identity and secure credentials.
Sensor Reading — A timestamped data point from a specific sensor on a device.
Security
- User access is managed through Google SSO with role-based permissions scoped to your organization.
- Device communication is encrypted end-to-end with mutual TLS and per-device API credentials.
- Tenant isolation ensures your organization's data is never accessible to other organizations.
