Title
Environmental sensor network for a pervasive learning space in a Finnish biosphere reserve
Abstract
Heroes of Koskenniska is a game-based pervasive learning space that combines mobile and sensor technologies to raise environmental and cultural awareness in a Finnish Biosphere Reserve. An environmental sensor network (ESN) is used to gather and process environmental parameters to be used in the game. The developed wireless infrastructure is presented together with several challenges in deployment of an ESN to a Finnish forest. Solutions to these challenges are proposed. Most of the challenges and solutions are generalisable to other outdoor contexts. Results indicate that while low-budget solutions solve majority of challenges there remains work to be done to optimise the system.
