The paper describes the data mining within district heating environment (physical data - temperatures and flow rates) as a basis of control and optimization of a particular district heating region. The cycle is defined: the gained data transmission to a cloud solution, subsequent data formatting and their processing by applications designed within the MindSphere® environment. The particular segments of the introduced solution are: design, activation and debugging of the senders of all wireless sensors.

Keywords: control systems, district heating, MindSphere, mathematical prediction, pipeline network, heat exchanger stations
