Internet of Things: Low Cost Monitoring BeeHive System using Wireless Sensor Network

Precision Beekeeping is an emerging research direction of Internet Things, based on a management strategy of individual monitoring of the colonies to minimize consumption resources and maximize the productivity of bee, is a challenging topic in the conditions of helping to add value to the apicultural chain, preserve the species, take care of the environment and contribute to the economic and social development of the territory. This document proposes an IoT system that can be applied into the hive to help beekeepers to get better control trough precision measurements. The need and importance of how this system can collaborate to carry out more in-depth studies in the region through precision beekeeping are presented too. Therefore this document proposes a system architecture that can help to increase the productivity and accuracy using sensors to measure humidity, temperature, and weight remotely to finally send this data from the hive to the third-party online Ubidots platform services.
