The rapid urbanization causes increased pressure on biodiversity, with dramatic consequences such as reduction of green areas, space fragmentation and species loss or transformation. Considering the importance of biodiversity for the quality of life in cities as well as for the biological and environmental equilibrium, cities should take great care for the protection and enhancement of the biodiversity. All the stakeholders of the city should be involved in the realization of this objective.
The biodiversity conservation requires first of all monitoring in order to scan the current situation, to track the biodiversity evolution and to take the right measurements to stop the biodiversity degradation and even more to ensure its development. However, the biodiversity monitoring is very complex, because of the huge variety of parameters of the biodiversity as well as the long-term timescale. The recent developments of Smart Technology could be used for biodiversity monitoring in cities.
