I am currently experimenting with IoT using a Raspberry pi 3 and Windows IoT core. I have orded the sensors but in the meantime I am simulating them by using hard codes values. This is all for a project that we are designing. I am looking for a dashboard where I can pass the data from the pi through an API to a dashboard using C#. The dashboard must be able to map multiple pi locations on a map and be able to send alerts when a pi gets disconnected. This is a little customized but I am pretty sure there is something available and any help will be greatly appreciated.

Why does it have to be in c#? – hardillb Nov 26 '20 at 14:35

1Simple enough to code. Each Pi sends a "heartbeat" to a central server every X seconds/minutes. When no heartbeat is received update the map; when a heartbeat is received from a previously dead Pi, update the map. Personally, I would make this browser based, rather than desktop app (and use LeafletJS & Open Street Map, rather than Google Maps). If it must be C#, then ask us on Software Recommendations for a C# mapping library. Great question (+1 & starred as favo(u)rite). – Mawg says reinstate Monica Nov 27 '20 at 11:41

1@mawg thank you so much for the response. I have managed to find an Azure solution that perfectly fits my needs. The solution is called IoT Central. You should check it out. – user9422677 Dec 01 '20 at 04:14
