Why Hacking Ecology?
Hacking Ecology aims to promote global access to high accuracy water monitoring systems using the most powerful open source tools to make it possible.
The high performance probes and the body of advisors assure reliable environmental data and systems ready for being applied to different activities. Hacking Ecology systems enable a wide implementation, from ecological research, citizen science, to agencies’ water quality control.
Collaborative is Better
The creation of the most accessible, flexible and user-friendly systems is a collaborative effort!
Our open source approach gather together users, researchers and organizations to participate in a constant feedback for improvement of the underwater tools. The best balance of IoT integration, full compatibility with different platforms and a rock-solid system is a challenging step and we build iit together.
