生態及生物多樣性資訊基礎建設與應用計畫

本計畫為透過目前已發展成熟的生態資訊學技術，用感測網的部署以收集長期生態觀測資料，建構我國生態與生物多樣性整合資訊管理系統，並依循全球生態資料交換標準與網路運算技術建置資料倉儲、展示與資料公開之共享平台，與國際接軌，並透過資料倉儲與網路應用系統的開發，提供分眾、主動、全程之生態知識服務，以為國內學術研究、大眾環境教育及政府決策機關運用，做為全球氣候變遷與生物多樣性保育的基礎資料來源之一。
本計畫所建置的生態感測網絡平台，串接了台北植物園、蓮華池試驗林及六龜扇平生態科學園區的網路基礎設施與生態監測硬體設備，包含了11聲景監測點、3個影像監測點及6個氣象監測點，所收集的資料包含蛙類聲景、菱形奴草影像、荷花池影像及各種基礎氣象資料。在人工資料收集方面，每周進行台北植物園花曆植物物候調查與開花照片拍攝，另外也定期赴試驗林地收錄自動相機所紀錄到的野生動物活動影像。所收集的各項資料已累計超過40萬筆資料，均以開放格式於生態感測展示平台對外提供。此外，完成了蓮華池3個氣象塔的避雷設施改善與動態樣區光纖網路節點增設，及蛙類聲音標音及自動辨識軟體的初步開發，以降低人工辨識蛙類鳴叫的時間與人力。
在教育推廣方面，出版了「誰得到好處？--森林大宅院的秘密」生態感測繪本、「繽紛花現-台北植物園開花紀實」推廣摺頁及「大自然的神奇寶貝」學習卡，並辦理了6場次的生態感測自然探索活動或教師研習營。

This program had used the well-developed intelligent ecology techniques and allocation of sensor network to collect long term ecological observation data and to establish the integrated information management system for ecology and biodiversity researches. We will follow the global ecological data exchange standards and the internet calculation techniques to construct an internationalized sharing platform for data storage, display, and openness. Through the development of data storage and internet application system, we will differentially, actively, and fully supply ecological knowledge service, as a basic source of global climate change and biodiversity conservation information, for domestic academic research, public environmental education and governmental institutes to apply.
The basic internet apparatus and ecological sensing hardware were connected by the Ecological Sensor Network established in this project. There were 11 audio-scape sensing points, 3 video sensing points and 6 meteorological sensing points. Data of frog audio-scape, Mitrastamon kanehirai video, lotus pond video, and basic meteorological information were collected. The phonological status and blooming pictures of the Floral Calendar Plants in Taipei Botanical Garden were surveyed and photographed every week. The video of wildlife activities recorded by automatic cameras were periodically collected from the experimental forests. More than 400,000 data were accessible to the public on the Ecological Sensor Network Website. The lightning conductor of 3 meteorological towers in Lien-Hwa-Chih, more nodes of light-fiber networks in the dynamic plots and the frog call automatic identification software were also accomplished.
For education and extension purposes, a sketch book of “Who was benefited—the secrets of a giant forest house”, a brochure named “Flowers are blooming-Diary of the flowers in Taipei Botanical Garden”, and learning cards of the “Magic Babies of the Mother Nature” were published. Furthermore, six extension training activities were held.
