Overview
The Quail Ridge Natural Reserve project is an effort to provide a wireless communications infrastructure to the wildlife reserve. The network will benefit on-site ecological research and provide a wireless mesh network testbed for development and analysis.
This is a joint project with the UC Davis Natural Reserve System and the Networks Lab at the Department of Computer Science, UC Davis.

Our Vision Our vision is a large scale wireless mesh network backbone deployed within the reserve. Various sensor networks would gather temperature, visual, and acoustic data at certain locations. This information would then be passed back to the field station for storage or for further relay over ethernet. The backbone nodes will also serve as access points enabling wireless access at their locations. Read more about our research goals.
