Agropestalert is a network of intelligent electronic devices for plague detection and containment.
Agropestalert is an intelligent electronic device for deployments of a interconnected networks of traps, assisted by cloud data analytics applications. It identifies pests at the species level and transmits the warning of their presence at the right moment when they appear so their infestation can be contained in a timely manner before their populations are out of control and cause irreparable damage to crops.

Manufacturing/Building Method
Energy-independent devices equipped with sensors capable of measuring biometric variables of target pests in order to identify them, and of abiotic variables of their environment such as temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and direction among others, and to wirelessly transmit these information to data analytics applications in the cloud.

Design Specifications
Smart traps capture biometric information on pests and abiotic variables in the environment. They transmit them to the cloud. Data analytics applications process information, group them, correlate and generate a database for query and issue of infestation alarms. Data mining applications process the information and identify to which species the insect is related to the biometric data processed.
