Understanding cloud forests through the power of cloud computing

The Brazilian Cloud Forest
Sensing Project is studying how cloud forests function in response to climatic
variability. The project deployed more than 700 Internet enabled sensors
connected to Microsoft Azure and is gathering integrated data on physical and
biological processes within the study site. Through its partnership with
Microsoft Research, the Brazilian Cloud Forest Sensing Project has created a
repeatable Internet-of-Things (IoT) solution that revolutionizes how research
can benefit from the use of a wireless sensor network, cloud technology, and
automated data stream processing.
