Elephant tracking with seismic sensors: A technical perceptive review

This paper presents a systematic literature review of elephant tracking approaches via seismic sensors. elephant tracking is broadly divided into two categories: technical approach and non technical approach. among these two research directions technical approach has proved to be risk-free. it helps accumulation of the life of both human and elephants in the human-elephant conflict (hec) scenario. in the technical approach,seismic sensors have been preferred as an effective methodology for elephant tracking as reported in the literature. seismic scenarios address research gap in the existing methodologies through their efficiency and precision in monitoring elephant movements without causing any harm to them while,at the same time,helping humans to solve their problems and saving environment from hazards. the main contribution of this paper is review of and address to the technical approaches that are employed for elephant tracking using seismic sensors which also include seismic communication through sensor devices and encourage future research on this topic. © 2015 penerbit utm press. all rights reserved.
