Today, to do ground-based in-situ observations of the arctic tundra, researchers carry wild life cameras and other observation units into the field, manually configure the devices while on the arctic tundra, and fetch the collected data several months later. This approach does not scale. Instead, observing and reporting of data must be automated using a distributed wireless network of autonomous ...

<p>Devices for observing the environment range from basic sensor systems, like step-counters, through wild-life cameras, with limited processing capabilities, to more capable devices with significant processing, memory and storage resources. Individual usage domains can benefit from a range of functionalities in these devices including flexibility in prototyping, on- device analytics, network roaming, ...
