It is not only about plants that are blooming at Bully’s landscapes….
It is about mobile phones, sensing, citizens, and data

processing, algorithm development and user-friendly reports and
analysis of geo-referenced data for every-day use. Mobile systems
with sensing capabilities are becoming integral part of everybody’s
life. The Center for Embedded Network Sensing (CENS)
(http://research.cens.ucla.edu/) at UCLA is collaborating with a host
other agencies and citizens to deliver community-based participatory
research for a myriad of uses such as individual/public health and
wellness, urban planning, epidemiology, civic concerns to natural
resource management, etc. (http://participatorysensing.org) . This
involves developing programmable, multi-modal, multi-scale, multiuse sensing architectures to address compelling science and
engineering issues – from human systems to ecosystems, from manmade to natural environments. Here, we are presenting the logistics
on how citizen-driven data is being used to capture flowering events
of plants on MSU campus, and how that data can be used in the near
future to develop several other projects (Fig. 1). For this endeavor,
we used mobile phones such as Nokia N-95 or I-phone to capture
geo-tagged images of flowering plants. Once the images are taken,
the geo-referenced data are seamlessly transmitted, and with
automatic and manual classification, audited and analyzed using data
storage services such as Flickr, and/or data storage/retrieval and
analytical systems at CENS, UCLA.

• Harmful algal blooms in rivers and coasts such as Mississippi river
basin and gulf coast as affected by upstream agricultural practices.
105.
• Invasive species including aquatic species and herbicide resistant
weed population documentation.
• Weed control guidelines in home lawns, golf courses and crop fields.

• Document species changes across landscapes as affected by local,
regional and global climate changes – ecological foot prints.
110.
• Pollution (noise as well as gases and industrial) monitoring.
• Disaster/crisis management operations.
111.
• Use as teaching tools to recruit students into science and
engineering fields, and to show linkages among the disciplines.

Fig. 1. A snap-shot of MSU campus map
with geo-referenced data of flowering
plants. The images were obtained using
mobile phones, and the data
campaigners were volunteers who took
the data while doing their routine jobs
and without much of user’s personal
time. The numbers in the circles on the
map indicate the volume of data collected
at given location.

• Disease and insect identification and control delivery systems.
• Create flowering events and/or maps and walkways at MSU campus
for visitors/local residents for enjoyment (Fig. 1).
• Design and plant eco- and resource-friendly and sustainable plants
for MSU landscapes.
102.
• There are over 3X109 mobile users globally and still growing…
• Recycling practices on campuses and cities.
From these spatial and temporal database, we
can:
• Study plant phenology (flowering) as affected by long-term weather –
climate foot-print on plant flowering, and thus resource allocation,
and use.
