BeeOmetrics: an AI-powered predictive platform based on wild bee activity for targeted environmental management.

Introduction

In response to the EU Green Deal's call for enhanced environmental responsibility, BeeOdiversity's BeeOmetrics project addresses the Environmental Intelligence Challenge. The rising human-induced pollution poses significant risks to ecosystems, soil, water, and air quality. Our innovative solution aims to bridge existing gaps within the EU by introducing cost-effective "green" technologies for environmental monitoring and remediation.

Project Overview

BeeOmetrics combines a nature-based, low-cost, on-site monitoring device with a powerful AI platform. It efficiently integrates, aggregates, and interprets data collected from various on-site sources, including biological, chemical, and physical remote sensors.

Integrated Approach

This integrated approach, bolstered by AI, harnesses wild bees found throughout Europe as scalable environmental bioindicators. Our primary focus is:

1. Monitoring specific pollution metrics
2. Assessing biodiversity metrics
3. Facilitating in-depth ecosystem health analysis
4. Generating predictive recommendations for remediating environmental contaminants
5. Revitalizing biodiversity

Decision Support

BeeOmetrics is designed to offer decision-ready, information-based guidance to policymakers and land managers. It provides easily understandable and scalable ecosystem metrics and recommendations, empowering them to make informed choices.

Goals

Our project seeks to:

• Reduce environmental pollution by developing safe and sustainable pilot-scale prototypes
• Raise awareness of the delicate balance between human activities and natural systems

Contribution to Policy and Economy

Ultimately, BeeOmetrics contributes to the evolution of an EU "environmental monitoring and remediation-based" economy, simplifying environmental policy-making through environmental intelligence.

Commitment to Sustainability

BeeOmetrics project stands at the forefront of shaping policies for environmental sustainability, preventing biodiversity loss, fostering economic growth, and promoting human health. In this way, we are dedicated to advancing the cause of Environmental Intelligence.
