The sensor-based observation of farm animals is already widely used today, especially on large farms with stables, e.g. pedometers for oestrus detection. However, location information of the individual animal and movement information of the herd are hardly used, although they offer a considerable added value for many decisions of the farmer, from easier identification of animals not coming for milking on the pasture and in the barn to long-term monitoring of movement patterns and health management activities. One reason for the current situation is the available but very expensive technology for localisation in the barn (e.g. Ubisense system, SMARTBOW) or the only recently available localisation techniques for pasture (e.g. Blaupunkt Telematics, Telespor). Both techniques are currently not suitable for continuous operation at high transmission rates and are therefore not used, especially in the field of dairy farming. The University Bamberg aims to publish scientific papers.
