Monitoring im Feld am Beispiel Gewässerinstandhaltung und Biotopkartierung

Abstract

In this document, two different and innovative approaches are presented which support the acquisition and processing of environmental data both in field applications as well as in further processing in a central office.The developed system for biotope mapping is provided and maintained as a client-server application. The developed system fetures a multi tier architecture with clear differentiation bewteen data persistence, business logic and the user interface. Central data storage avoids inconsistencies and redundancies in the database. By directly integrating a server-based GIS component for the visualization of the biotope objects in a map view, an overview is provided for surrounding biotopes and geospatial data.The presented monitoring solution was based on the requirement for data collection, visualization, further data processing and analysis as well as reporting of management data of water and soil associations in the area of water maintenance. In this process, data collected by a vehicle in the field is visualized in real-time. The combination of hardware -a data logger and a tablet device -and software -for mobile capture and display, as well as downstream processing and GIS analysis -can also be used to control the management of mobile objects in various operating modes.
