Abstract
Monitoring natural resources, biodiversity and wildlife data is crucial for economic and ecological sustainability. But in areas that are hard to reach, monitoring becomes a problem. In Scotland, for example rare eagles and plants in need of protection are found in deserted locations. It takes many man hours to keep tabs on these places but technology is being developed to enable remotely located cameras to do the work for us.
