Problems solved by technology

[0014] It is important to emphasize that the techniques listed above have limited monitoring capabilities over the long term or beyond five years and do not monitor environmental variables
[0015] In addition, they have limited ability to operate via wireless communication, have a limited operating range (Δ≤300mm) and do not monitor actual measurements (only growth changes with respect to the starting point)
[0016] Therefore, even if solutions are proposed, such solutions allow the possibility of reading errors and the interpretation and manipulation of the obtained data, which is a serious flaw in forest monitoring and measurement

Embodiment Construction

[0026] The present invention describes a system and method for forest monitoring, wherein the system consists of two devices (dendrometer (1) and concentrator (19)) which, when connected to each other, form a smart package (34 ), the smart package performs the measurement, processing, storage and transmission of information (such as trunk diameter, morphological, biological and health status of the tree, air humidity and temperature, fire risk, weed competition level, etc.).

[0027] A dendrometer (1) comprises a set of sensors capable of monitoring and measuring the diameter growth of a tree as well as the physical (morphological, biological and health) state of the tree. More specifically, a dendrometer consists of the following parts:

[0028] - cables (2);

[0029] - stress strap springs (3);

[0030] - Smaller gear (4);

[0031] - gear (5);

[0032] - rotation sensor (6);

[0033] - the upper part (7) of the housing;

[0034] - the lower part (8) of the housing;

Abstract

This invention relates to a forest monitoring system and method. Monitoring is performed continuously and remotely and evaluates factors such as growth and health, as well as climate and environment variables in forests, wooded surfaces or thus identified surfaces, using wireless data transfer.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the fields of human and engineering needs, and more particularly, to the fields of botany and surveying instruments, and to systems and methods for forest monitoring. [0002] Using wireless data transfer, the monitoring occurs remotely and continuously, and evaluates factors such as growth and health, as well as climate and environmental variables in the forest, wooded area, or surface characterized thereby. Background technique [0003] Currently, forest monitoring is practiced as data collection by a team of people who move to the area of ​​interest and use tape measures or bevel thickness gauges, have millimeter accuracy and are susceptible to reading and manipulation during operation Wrong tool to manually collect tree diameter data. [0004] To meet the needs of scientific research in forested areas, equipment such as electronic or mechanical dendrometers have been developed. However, none of these devices have ...
