I want to lead off with a big shout-out to Botletics and their (his?) SIM7000 LTE CAT-M1 shield. From the beginning I knew I was going to need wireless connectivity and that WiFi was not going to reach. I considered Blues Wireless, but ultimately went with Botletics + hologram.io and I'm extremely glad I did. I plugged it in, I lightly modified the example code (it was pretty close to what I needed already, I basically just took out the GPS reading and replaced it with an averaged HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor reading) and it just worked.
