The main (overriding) goal of the operation is to create a prototype of an intelligent apiary. The apiaries will be located in various environments, i.e. wooded areas (forests), field areas (arable fields), and mixed areas (an area with two previously described types, as well as ruderal areas and forest stands). The main result of the project is the development and implementation of the Smart Apiary prototype (intelligent apiary). The expected effect is a tested and prepared for implementation prototype of the monitoring and early warning system of apiaries, created on the basis of machine learning, thanks to which it will be possible to control the most important parameters in the hive.

Monitoring and the use of an early warning system in the apiary will positively affect the condition of bee colonies. It will reduce the frequency of commuting to these apiaries, which will have a positive effect on reducing CO2 emissions to the atmosphere and will significantly increase the safety of apiary production.
