IoT Monitoring for Forest Change & Growth
IoT Monitoring for Forest Change & Growth
Digitising forest insights for better management and conservation.
Challenge
Forests are often located in remote areas, making traditional monitoring methods inefficient and costly. Managing forests as large uniform blocks can lead to missed environmental changes, and a lack of early warning systems makes it difficult to respond to threats like deforestation or climate impact.
Solution
A LoRaWAN®-based automated monitoring system that provides real-time insights on forest dynamics, environmental changes, and biological processes, ensuring early detection of changes for improved conservation and management.
Deployment
A UG67 Outdoor Gateway is mounted at an elevated location to provide up to 11km LoRaWAN® coverage, supporting 2,000+ sensor nodes. The system receives and transmits environmental data using high-gain glass fibre antennas. Various LoRaWAN® sensors are attached to trees and soil to track forest growth, climate variations, and ecosystem shifts. The collected data is analysed in the cloud for research and decision-making.
