📈 Telemetry API
Why this is needed
We want our devices as well as customer’s own hack-projects to be able to stream data to us so that
- beekeepers can track their apiaries in Analytics with grafana dashboards
- beekeepers can correlate data to get insights
- we can generate Alerts
Evaluation of the honey bee colonies weight gain during the intensive foraging period
Low volume metrics that Entrance Observer can send to Web-app
- temperature (min interval - 10 min)
- humidity (min interval - 10 min) - see Humidity monitoring
- weight (min interval - 10 min) → [Beep.nl weight telemetry integration](https://www.notion.so/Beep-nl-weight-telemetry-integration-a72ed2ce25004a3c853bb41fa08abc48?pvs=21)
- bee counts at the hive entrance (min interval - 10 sec)
- how many worker bees have gone in and out
- how many of them had varroa mite
- how many of them had pollen
- how many guard bees are detected
- how many drone bees are detected
- how many queen bees are detected → Detect queen mating from entrance video
- how many worker bees have gone in and out
- hornet count (min interval 10 sec) → Hornet attack detection
- audio noise average volume (min interval - 1 sec)
- this should not be confused with actual audio stream that would be sent with 6-channel audio monitoring as part of Robotic Beehive, because Entrance Observer has limited amount of USB ports so we can’t have mics there
AC
- provide a flexible graphQL API in telemetry-api to store timeseries metrics
- store this data into timeseries DB, ex. InfluxDB. Alternatively maybe look at prometheus. If too hard, fallback to MySQL.
- play with Analytics with grafana to be able to display graphs
