great question, as usual, Chip.

Option 1: Raspberry Pi + Particle CLI

Could a Raspberry Pi be used here?
If one can install the Particle CLI in it, you could potentially use a script that runs when the rasp pi boots and calls the CLI to flash the firmware.
Very Park Ranger friendly:

  1. connect via usb to the boron
  2. power up
  3. wait a minute and/or observe the boron go yellow then back to online mode breathing cyan

Option 2: Raspberry Pi + NEOPO

@nrobinson2000 will be in better position to confirm if you could use neopo for this as an alternative to the Particle CLI.

EDIT:

Option 3: Do they have laptops?

If they do, an Electron app that wraps chrome or the Particle CLI can

Those are some options I can think of today :bulb:

Cheers!
