With the support of the Municipal Economic and Information Committee, the District Science and Technology Commission and the telecommunications department, Hengsha Township in Chongming District launched the “Ecological Brain Brain” construction this year. There are ecological sensing contacts in the river, farmland and woodland. At present, there are 147 islands in the whole island. These contacts are like “neurons” and generally record the ecological indicators of the corresponding points.
“For example, the contacts in the water are generally located at the bottom of the river, and the solar panels are exposed on the water surface to monitor water quality, flow rate, dissolved oxygen, ammonia nitrogen content and other water quality indicators; the contacts in the soil are buried in farmland, etc., monitoring the soil. Temperature, humidity, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium content, heavy metal content and other indicators." Fan Weifeng, deputy director of the Chongming District Science and Technology Commission told reporters that each contact is equipped with a number of sensors, each sensor records the ecology of a certain type of indicators Data, there are currently more than a thousand such sensors in Hengsha. The “ecological neurons” are driven by solar panels and are equipped with batteries to ensure normal operation during rainy and rainy days.
