Giving Beekeeping Guidance by cOmputatiOnal-assisted Decision making
B-GOOD will pave the way towards healthy and sustainable beekeeping within the European Union by following a collaborative and interdisciplinary approach. Merging data from within and around beehives as well as wider socioeconomic conditions, B-GOOD will develop and test innovative tools to perform risk assessments according to the Health Status Index (HSI).
B-GOOD has the overall goal to provide guidance for beekeepers and help them make better and more informed decisions.
B-GOOD's platform will utilise and further expand the open source BEEP system comprised of a monitoring device and the already functional user-friendly application for digital beekeeping logbooks.
Six B-GOOD developed technologies will feed real-time data into the platform
honeybee vibrations-based accelerometers to produce long term statistics;
gas and
