### Environmental factors
For a bit of light reading on environmental research:
- [RF attenuation in vegetation](https://www.itu.int/dms_pubrec/itu-r/rec/p/R-REC-P.833-9-201609-I!!PDF-E.pdf) (yes really); if you wander through the woods wondering how your RF is bouncing off leaves dependent on their variety, and wind speed … well you do, now.

- [RF attenuation with various building materials](https://www.ofcom.org.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0016/84022/building_materials_and_propagation.pdf).
- This one by ITU again is very detailed in its [analysis of the drivers of attenuation](https://www.itu.int/dms_pubrec/itu-r/rec/p/R-REC-P.2040-1-201507-I!!PDF-E.pdf) (I wasnt aware that all EMF radiation exhibits reflection / transmission characteristics akin to light hitting a material boundary. So, depending on the angle of incidence, material and the EMF wavelength, it will be reflected and / or transmitted through).

So, depending on the angle of incidence, material and the EMF wavelength, it will be reflected and / or transmitted through).
- These RF bands are also made more [noisy by adjacent LTE](https://www.ofcom.org.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0023/55922/lte-coexistence.pdf)
In summary - wavelengths in Europe fair well in plain sight, curve over not-so-tall obstacles (including trees), reflect of surfaces at low angles of incidence. They go through humans without much attenuation; but not brick or stone or anything much above glass / Kevlar. Oh, and dont sit under an LTE tower and expect it to be plain sailing.

## Doing GPIO operations
You can programmatically do operations from your own python code by using the meshtastic `RemoteHardwareClient` class. See the [python API](https://meshtastic.github.io/Meshtastic-python) documentation for more details.

This library provides a command line interface for Meshtastic nodes and provides an easy API for sending and receiving messages over mesh radios, in addition to changing user settings. Using the command line is currently the most powerful. Events are delivered using a publish-subscribe model, and you can subscribe to only the message types you are interested in.
[Full documentation](https://meshtastic.github.io/Meshtastic-python) for the library, including examples, is available.

### Visual Studio & PlatformIO
There is also the method of using the Visual Studio IDE. This requires having Visual Studio and PlatformIO installed, along with having cloned the meshtastic-device code as per the [build instructions](https://github.com/meshtastic/Meshtastic-device/blob/master/docs/software/build-instructions.md)<!-- link to be changed once build page is completed -->. After loading the project in Visual Studio, select the PlatformIO alien icon, then find the appropriate device, and then click the Erase Flash command.
