Verfahren zum nachweis von schädlingen in einer falle

Abstract

A method (700) for detecting one or more pests in a trap (100) is disclosed. The trap (100) comprises one or more entrances (102), a capture compartment (104), one or more gas sensors (106) arranged to register airborne substances released in the capture compartment (104) and one or more non-gas sensors (108) arranged to register one or more environmental parameters in the capture compartment (104) and / or in the one or more entrances (102), a control circuitry (110), comprising a processor (112) and a memory (114), arranged to control operation of the one or more gas and non-gas sensors (106, 108), and a data processing model (116) communicatively connected to the control circuitry (110). The method comprises obtaining (702) gas sensor data (204) indicative of the airborne substances using the one or more gas sensors (106), obtaining (704) non-gas sensor data (206) indicative of the one or more environmental parameters using the one or more non-gas sensors (108), providing (706) the gas sensor data (204) and the non-gas sensor data (206) as inputs to the data processing model (116), and generating (708) output data (208) from the data processing model (116), wherein the output is indicative of presence or non-presence of the one or more pests in the capture compartment (104).
