Monitoring System What are the benefits of Monitoring System ? Students can observe and collect data on weather conditions near their school, as well as other natural phenomena such as snow ice and ice cover, bird migration, flowering of local plant species, etc. Teachers can upload the data they collect to the EDUARCTIC portal. Data uploaded to the web portal is publicly available to all participants everywhere.
