This research list collects public Meshtastic and MeshCore networks found outside, or with substantially better evidence than, the main official community indexes. Sources include local radio-club sites, personal technical pages, deployment reports, repeater documentation, maps and small regional portals.
Discovered networks
| Network | Technology | Area | Evidence level | What the independent source establishes | Public source | Last checked |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| RegionMesh | MeshCore | United States; multiple developing regions | Confirmed public infrastructure map | Runs a public live map of repeaters and participants and publishes city and state network pages. | Network map | 29 Jul 2026 |
| NEO Mesh | MeshCore | Northeast Ohio, United States | Confirmed organized network | Publishes its MeshCore public channels, local operating guidance and community contact. | MeshCore page | 29 Jul 2026 |
| NoDak Mesh | Meshtastic · MeshCore | North Dakota, United States | Confirmed dual-protocol network | The operator explicitly states that its network runs both protocols and publishes local repeater and onboarding material. | Operator article · MeshCore guide | 29 Jul 2026 |
| WNY MeshCore | MeshCore | Western New York, United States | Organized buildout | Maintains a regional community portal, map, repeater-hosting program and participation guidance. | Community portal | 29 Jul 2026 |
| Temecula Wireless Emergency Mesh | Meshtastic · MeshCore | Temecula Valley, California, United States | Confirmed public network | Describes an open public network maintained by volunteers and explicitly supporting Meshtastic and MeshCore. | Project page | 29 Jul 2026 |
| 73Mesh | MeshCore | Silicon Valley and San Jose, California, United States | Confirmed network tooling | Publishes a live packet analyzer, network map, repeater directory and public-channel view for the San Jose area. | Network tools | 29 Jul 2026 |
| CT Mesh MeshCore network | MeshCore | Connecticut, United States | Confirmed regional configuration | Publishes repeater deployment instructions for its public MeshCore network and identifies the parameters required to remain compatible. | Repeater guide | 29 Jul 2026 |
| Salish Mesh | MeshCore; formerly Meshtastic | Fraser Lowland, British Columbia, Canada | Confirmed local network | A local community page says the network began on Meshtastic, transitioned mostly to MeshCore and publishes its public channel names. | Local project page | 29 Jul 2026 |
| MeshCore Canada | MeshCore | Canada | National discovery resource | Provides a province-by-province entry point for local MeshCore networks, frequencies and contacts. It is a directory rather than a single RF network. | Country portal | 29 Jul 2026 |
| LocalMesh | MeshCore | Netherlands | Confirmed national coordination project | Describes a community-driven emergency communications mesh, publishes joining and repeater instructions, and provides map and coverage sections. | Network guide | 29 Jul 2026 |
| Swiss Mesh | MeshCore · Meshtastic | Switzerland | Organized national community | Publishes multilingual community resources and deployment guidance for both LoRa mesh systems. | Community portal | 29 Jul 2026 |
| Meshtastic Italia Matrix network | Meshtastic | Italy | Independent topology evidence | The community site documents an interactive Matrix Map with RF and MQTT links, node details and terrain-analysis tools, providing stronger evidence than a chat-group listing alone. | Community and map documentation | 29 Jul 2026 |
Deep-search leads requiring more verification
| Lead | Area | Why it is not yet a confirmed record | Public source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Southwest North Port MeshCore | North Port, Port Charlotte and Punta Gorda, Florida, United States | A public post describes a growing network and map, but a stable independent project page or operator directory has not yet been located. | Community post |
| MeshCore Saarland experiments | Saarland, Germany | Secondary descriptions mention amateur-radio experimentation, but the network still needs an identifiable operator page, map or current community contact. | Secondary reference |
Search methods that find the less-visible networks
- Search common misspellings and abbreviations:
Meshtast,MeshTastic,mesh core,LoRa meshand local project names. - Use local-language words for network, repeater, node, coverage, map and community.
- Search radio-club pages, personal technical blogs, GitHub README files, forum deployment reports and map subdomains.
- Follow configuration pages: a locally published frequency, preset, region tag or public channel often exposes a network whose home page never uses the word “community.”
- Treat maps as leads rather than automatic proof. A visible node can be temporary, MQTT-only, mobile, stale or intentionally imprecise.
Privacy boundary
MeshAtlas records only information deliberately published for public discovery or participation. It does not republish precise residential node coordinates, infer a private operator’s identity, enumerate closed channels or expose access credentials. Where a source offers a map, this directory links to the operator’s map instead of copying its node-level data.
Corrections and additions
If you know a locally documented network that is missing, send its public project page, approximate service area, technology and any published map or configuration guide. A Discord or Telegram invitation helps with contact, but an independent page or deployment record is stronger evidence.
