Why use inMotion?
Keep a Long History of Your Data
See how things change over time, not just what a single reading says right now.
- Any frequency - Whether readings come in once a day or several times a second, inMotion keeps up.
- Timezone aware - Every reading is stored with a known timezone, so your times stay correct wherever you are.
- Automatically organised - Related readings are grouped together into streams, instead of turning into one giant spreadsheet.
- Cleans up bad data - Suspect readings can be flagged, corrected, or smoothed out automatically, so one dodgy sensor doesn't ruin your history.
- Consistent units - Readings from different sensors are matched to the same standard (e.g. temperature is always temperature), so you can compare them fairly.
Connect Your Own Apps and Devices
Get your data in and out, whichever way suits you.
- No coding required - Drag and drop CSV or map files straight into your account through the website.
- Bulk updates - Send readings from several devices in one go instead of one request at a time.
- Open when you need it - Want to connect your own apps, scripts, or devices? inMotion is built on an open Data Platform with a documented API and SDKs.
Store Any Kind of Data
- Built-in activity types - Track (something moving, like a bike ride) and Site (a fixed point, like a weather station) are both handled natively.
- Maps and images - Store geo-tagged photos and map layers in common formats (Shapefiles, GeoJSON, GeoTIFF) alongside your readings.
- More complex data too - Grids and other multi-dimensional data are supported, not just simple point readings.
- Doesn't fit a standard format? - No problem - it can still be stored as-is, whatever shape it's in.
Your Data, Kept Private
- You decide who sees what - Only account owners and administrators can grant others access to your data.
- Encrypted in transit - Your data is protected while it travels to and from inMotion.
- Tamper-proof requests - Every request is digitally signed, so no one can alter data on its way in without being detected.
- No tracking, no selling your data - We don't use third-party analytics or share your data, and we comply with privacy rules like GDPR.
