Resumo(s)
Precision Beekeeping, a field of Precision Agriculture, is an apiary management strategy based on monitoring
honeybee colonies to promote more sustainable resource usage and maximise productivity. The approach related
to Precision Beekeeping is based on methodologies to mitigate the stress associated with human intervention in
the colonies and the waste of resources. These goals are achieved by supporting the intervention and managing
the beekeeper’s timely and appropriate action at the colony’s level. In recent years, the growth of IoT (Internetof-Things) in Precision Agriculture has spurred several proposals to contribute to the paradigm of Precision
Beekeeping, built on different technical concepts and with different production costs. This work proposes and
describes an information systems architecture concept named BHiveSense, based on IoT and microservices, and
different artefacts to demonstrate its concept: (1) a low-cost COTS (Commercial Off-The-Shelf) hive sensing
prototype, (2) a REST backend API, (3) a Web application, and (4) a Mobile application. This project delivers a
solution for a more integrated and sustainable beekeeping activity. Our approach stresses that by adopting
microservices and a REST architecture, it is possible to deal with long-standing problems concerning interoperability, scalability, agility, and maintenance issues, delivering an efficient beehive monitoring system.
