Web based system for the bee colony remote monitoring

Monitoring of bioprocesses is an important problem and challenge for researchers and information technology specialists. Beekeeping is one of the agricultural sub directions where monitoring techniques and methods can be adapted and applied. Integration of information technologies into beekeeping process can improve the beekeepers knowledge about behavior of individual bee colonies. One of the objectives in the field of bee monitoring is to develop real time on-line tools for continuous observations of bees during their life and production using the automatic solutions avoiding exposure of bees to additional stress or unproductive activities. The aim of these technical tools is not to replace but rather to support the beekeeper. The aim of this paper is to describe developed web based system for real time bee monitoring.
