| Astratto: | Recent occurrence of unfortunate series of events such as flash flood,
landslides and unprecedented warmer temperature raised concerns and drove actions
towards preventing the occurrence of such events. Biodiversity monitoring is one of
the alternative solutions which is a long term effort that provide useful information to
allow early prevention of unfortunate events as a result of illegal logging activities,
deforestation, forest fire etc. The existing biodiversity monitoring are manually
conducted which rely on human resource and as such introduced several challenges
and limitations. Therefore, the development of an efficient, real-time biodiversity
monitoring system is needed. This paper discussed the challenges and successful
implementation of wireless biodiversity monitoring system which encompasses
knowledge and expertise from multi-disciplinary field such as environmental, biology,
electronics and network engineering. This paper also provided information on sensors
and wireless networks utilized in this monitoring system. With the availability of this
biodiversity monitoring system, the status of the forest health can be identified on real-
time basis hence early precaution and prevention can be undertaken to prevent the
catastrophic events.
