In this paper, the LoRaWAN network coverage provided by many gateways across Germany is evaluated mainly concerning the transportation sector (German rail routes). For this purpose, related works are first analyzed. Based on this, the objective of the measurement is concretized, and a microcontroller measurement module is prototypically developed and built. Along a previously defined route, the measurement module continuously attempts to send GNSS data via LoRaWAN. The received data will be stored and evaluated, including metadata such as RSSI. The evaluation is not only concerned with network coverage, but also with some considerations of possible use cases in the transportation sector.
