Edge Intelligence setting template for geo-fence

Before you start, you must create a geo-fence first.

Many airports pay special attention to the movement track and flight altitude of birds near the airport to plan and implement precise bird control project. This can also be applied to areas such as wind farms and high-voltage power lines.

• Basic Setting

  • GNSS interval: 2 hour (adjustable according to device battery)

  • ENV interval: 1 hour (adjustable according to device battery)

  • ODBA interval: 10 min (adjustable according to device battery)

  • Transmission interval: 8 hour (adjustable according to device battery)

    Above settings are available on Ecotopia data center or App.

• Edge Intelligence Setting
  Draw the key area where your research focus on (like airports, wind farms, or power lines) and the surrounding 50 km range as “Geo-fence A”. Draw another key area and the surrounding 5 km range as “Geo-fence B”. According to your previous few days tracking or paper research, the ODBA range during the target's flight is “X” to “Y”. The setting is shown as below.

  

• Setting Demonstration for Rule 1

  

  Above settings are only available on Ecotopia data center. After you finish, please delivery the setting with Ecotopia App or wait for the device to transmit once, then the settings will take effect.

• Setting Description
  Before tracking targets entering the focus area, they often move fast. Therefore, by setting the ODBA value to capture initial movement, and the GNSS interval is increased for the first time, and then increased again when entering geo-fence A. Finally, a high-frequency collecting rate is achieved when entering geo-fence B.
  In order to ensure the stability of the tracking device's battery and enable it to work for a long time, the voltage threshold is set relatively high. If the required data period is not long and the research purpose is only to obtain data in the focus area, the voltage threshold can be lowered. The frequency setting for GNSS can be modified but not removed. Other Action items can be added or deleted according to your research purpose.

Note: In the Edge Intelligence setting, the combined total of polygon geofence vertices and circular geofences for a device must not exceed 10. Otherwise, the Edge Intelligence setting will fail to be applied. For instance, Device A has 2 Edge Intelligence rules: 2 square geofences in the first rule and 1 circular geofence in the second. The total vertices of polygon geofences (8) plus circular geofences (1) equal 9, and the setting will be applied successfully.

However, Device B has 2 rules with 3 square geofences in the first rule and 1 circular geofence in the second. The total vertices of polygon geofences (12) plus circular geofences (1) equal 13, and the setting will not be applied.

Please test properly after delivery of Edge Intelligence setting to make sure it is applied.
