BEE HIVE MONITORING

Bees are important to all kinds of people for a variety of reasons.  Now that it’s possible to have a visual and data record of their hive activity, there are all kinds of new insights, and connections waiting to be discovered and enjoyed.

HONEYBEES

Hive monitoring health indicators from honey bee flight activity include the orientation pattern and growth trends measured in bees per second.

BUMBLEBEES

Forager activity measurement indicates the pollination effectiveness of the hive.  With just 100 bees in a colony, it’s nice to know they’re still flying.

BACKYARD BEEKEEPING

Beekeeping is about connecting with nature and our precious bees. Hive monitoring lets you keep an eye on hive health, and share the joy of beekeeping with others.

 COMMERCIAL POLLINATION

Monitoring the forager activity and pollination income of hives at an overwintering location or pollination drop gives beekeepers and growers direct data on what to expect from both the bees, and the crop.

EDUCATION

Teaching a bee class with access to video and data from tens of hives engages educators and students alike!
