项目摘要

The Internet of Things (IoT) represents the next major step for the Internet as it evolves from a communication substrate that connects computers to one that connects and embraces everyday objects (things). This has the potential to revolutionize many different sectors of the economy and society more generally, e.g. enabling smart cities, smart transport systems, intelligent management of energy supplies, etc, all enabled by data collection from sensors. Most research in the Internet of Things has been carried out in cities and urban areas more generally. In our view, IoT has even more potential in rural environments, providing real-time data streams to support a deep understanding of environmental inter-dependencies and the subsequent support for holistic management strategies. More specifically, we argue that the combination of IoT technology coupled with Cloud Computing enables a paradigm shift in our understanding and management of the natural environment in times of unprecedented environmental change.This project will illustrate and evaluate the potential of IoT technology in a given catchment, the Conwy. Through this, we will deliver:1. An integrated distributed systems infrastructure consisting of an experimental Internet of Things also linking to a cloud computing environment, and achieving interoperability across the resultant complex system;2. A set of techniques to discover and study inter-dependencies across disparate real-time data streams representing different environmental facets, at potentially different geographical locations and at different scales;3. Two end user driven applications based on the underlying IoT/ cloud infrastructure demonstrating the impact of a more integrative approach to science and how it can inform holistic environmental management, e.g. across land and water management.The proposed research involves a world class, cross-disciplinary team bringing together the expertise of the School of Computing and Communications at Lancaster University and the Environment Centre Wales (incorporating CEH and the University of Bangor). The project also has a strong Stakeholders Group involving representatives of key beneficiaries of the work including: Welsh Water, Natural Resources Wales (merged Environment Agency-Wales, Forestry Commission Wales, Countryside Council for Wales), Welsh Government and Conwy CC.

物联网 (IoT) 代表了互联网的下一个重大步骤，因为它从连接计算机的通信基础演变成连接和拥抱日常物体（事物）的通信基础。这有可能更广泛地彻底改变经济和社会的许多不同部门，例如：实现智慧城市、智能交通系统、能源供应的智能管理等，所有这些都是通过传感器的数据收集来实现的。大多数物联网研究都是在城市和城市地区进行的。我们认为，物联网在农村环境中具有更大的潜力，它提供实时数据流，以支持对环境相互依赖性的深入理解以及随后对整体管理策略的支持。更具体地说，我们认为，在前所未有的环境变化时期，物联网技术与云计算的结合使我们对自然环境的理解和管理发生了范式转变。该项目将说明和评估物联网技术在康威特定流域的潜力。通过这一点，我们将实现：1。一个集成的分布式系统基础设施，由一个实验性的物联网组成，还连接到云计算环境，并实现整个复杂系统的互操作性；2．一套技术，用于发现和研究代表不同环境方面、潜在不同地理位置和不同规模的不同实时数据流之间的相互依赖性；3．两个基于底层物联网/云基础设施的最终用户驱动的应用程序展示了更加综合的科学方法的影响以及它如何为整体环境管理提供信息，例如拟议的研究涉及世界一流的跨学科团队，汇集了兰卡斯特大学计算与通信学院和威尔士环境中心（包括 CEH 和班戈大学）的专业知识。该项目还拥有一个强大的利益相关者团体，其中包括该工作的主要受益者的代表，包括：威尔士水务局、威尔士自然资源局（合并后的威尔士环境局、威尔士林业委员会、威尔士乡村委员会）、威尔士政府和康威社区委员会。
