Outline of Final Research Achievements

This aims to develop a Spatio-Temporal Information Correction Mechanism for Wild Animal Wearable Sensors. It is difficult to acquire the positioning information with GPS sensors in the forest region. Furthermore, electric power sources and mobile communication infrastructures are often limited, because the provision of such resources is expensive in the wild (e.g., near the ground surface of the forest) and tend to be in areas with a limited number of users. In this research, we proposed a method, which does not depend on the sensor and a mobile communication, for correcting the acquisition of the time and location information.
