ACCESS, PEOPLE & OPERATIONS
Security and vacant-property monitoring
Improve visibility of unexpected activity at unattended buildings, remote assets and spaces between routine visits.
Vacant homes, construction compounds, stores and plant rooms can generate uncertainty for estate teams. A planned combination of access, movement and environmental signals can help prioritise checks and provide context for an incident.

From pilot to portfolio
01
What we monitor
Depending on the site, suitable devices may report door or window openings, movement, tamper events and changes in environmental conditions. Power or equipment status may be available through compatible interfaces. We choose signals that answer the operational question and avoid unnecessary collection of personal information.
02
Illustrative application scenario
For example, a vacant building records an opening followed by movement outside an agreed contractor visit. The nominated responder checks the schedule and follows the property’s incident procedure. A separate water or temperature event can prompt a maintenance response rather than a security call-out.
Events need context: movement does not identify an intruder, and a missing update can indicate a connectivity or battery issue. The response process is designed around those distinctions.
REAL-WORLD PROJECT
Municipal data centres in El Marqués, Mexico
In January 2026, RAD announced that El Marqués municipality had selected RAD and NEXTDATA for a project to centralise monitoring across municipal data centres. The proposed scope combines access and motion events with environmental readings and water-leak alerts. This is an announced project illustrating a combined security-and-environment approach; the announcement does not establish completed deployment results.

Third-party project featured in the LoRa Alliance success-story directory. This is not a Nesos IoT deployment; reported results relate to this project.
03
What your team sees in NesosIQ
Bring relevant events into a site-level view with timestamps, trends and device status where supported. Agreed notification routes help the responsible team investigate. Integration with an existing security-management system can be assessed during discovery; video and other high-bandwidth services require suitable separate connectivity.
04
What a pilot should establish
Assess coverage, tamper exposure, power, expected activity and communications resilience. Test the event-to-response chain and agree who is available, including out of hours. Measure useful detections, nuisance notifications and time to investigate before expanding.
This service supports situational awareness. It is not presented as a certified intruder alarm, police-response service or guaranteed prevention of intrusion. Where those are required, the design must include the appropriate specialist systems and monitoring arrangements.

No. Nesos IoT deployments use LoRaWAN, a low-power wireless standard designed for monitoring across buildings and estates, so devices do not rely on building Wi-Fi. Network design, gateway connectivity and a site survey are confirmed for each project so coverage fits the environment.
-
Your organisation does. Nesos IoT does not manage alerts or operational responses: your team defines the thresholds, notification routes and response procedures, and NesosIQ can connect to your existing systems through APIs and agreed integrations.
-
Yes. Suitable applications can share the same estate network and NesosIQ platform, so you can start with one challenge and add further monitoring as your needs grow. Our device-agnostic approach selects compatible equipment for each task.

We follow Discover, Survey, Pilot, Deploy, Integrate and Scale, starting with a focused pilot that validates measurements, coverage and the operational response. Nesos IoT is based in St Helier, Jersey, and works across the Channel Islands and beyond. Call +44 (0) 1534 753225 or email info@nesos.co.uk.
NEXT STEPS
From pilot to portfolio
We follow Discover, Survey, Pilot, Deploy, Integrate and Scale: agree the operational need, validate devices and coverage, commission the solution and connect it to the people who will act. Device choice, reporting intervals and integrations are confirmed for each project. Suitable applications can share the estate network and NesosIQ platform.
