Abstract

Internet of Things (IoT) systems have seen recent growth in popularity for city and home environments. We report on the design, deployment, and use of the IoT infrastructure for environmental monitoring and management. Working closely with hydrologists, soil scientists, and animal behaviour scientists, we successfully deployed and utilised a system to deliver integratedinformationacrossthesetwoﬁeldsintheﬁrstsuchexampleofreal-timemultidimensional environmental science. We describe the design of this system; its requirements and operational effectiveness for hydrological, soil, and ethological scientists; and our experiences from building, maintaining, and using the deployment at a remote site in difﬁcult conditions. Based on this experience, we discuss key future work for the IoT community when working in these kinds of environmental deployments
