Educational Dashboards

The Broodminder Educational Dashboard is a real-time, intuitive window into the life of a beehive. Designed for schools, museums, nature parks, agritourism sites, and also corporations or institutions hosting hives, it makes bee monitoring data engaging and accessible to everyone—no beekeeping background required.

Each dashboard is linked to a specific hive and apiary in MyBroodMinder, offering a live view of the colony’s evolution throughout the year.

Key Features

Apiary & Hive Overview

Displays the name and location of the hive, current weather conditions, and the last update timestamp. This provides context about the environmental conditions influencing the hive’s activity.

Colony Evolution Timeline

An interactive graph shows the hive weight over time, highlighting nectar flows, honey accumulation, and swarming events. Users can switch views between one week, one month, and one year.

Internal Hive Conditions

Real-time temperature and humidity data from inside the hive. Stable internal temperature indicates healthy brood rearing, while humidity reflects colony ventilation behavior.

Foragers Activity

This graph reflects the number of foraging trips. Peaks show busy bee traffic, while dips may indicate weather changes, colony stress, or inactivity.

Plant Resources

The dashboard includes a dynamic floral resource section featuring a carousel of plant species and a seasonal timeline. The carousel displays high-quality images of each plant along with key information such as nectar and pollen interest for bees, making it easy to understand the value of each species. Each plant card highlights whether it’s a source of nectar, pollen, or both, and how attractive it is to pollinators. Accompanying this, the timeline maps out the flowering periods and peak availability of the plants throughout the year. This immersive display helps users visualize the connection between local flora and hive activity, while raising awareness about the importance of biodiversity and the preservation of melliferous species.

Hive videos (Optional)

Optionally, the dashboard can display a live camera feed or time-lapse video from inside the hive—bringing the experience to life for remote viewers.

This section helps visitors understand the direct link between the local landscape and bee activity, reinforcing awareness of biodiversity and the importance of preserving native flora.

For Corporations and Organizations

Businesses that host or rent hives can offer their employees, clients, and partners a transparent, interactive view of the bees’ lives. The dashboard enhances:

• CSR and sustainability initiatives
• Employee engagement and education
• Public awareness during events or visits
• Brand storytelling through biodiversity and ecological impact

It can be embedded in intranets, displayed on public screens, or integrated into internal communication channels.

Simple, Visual, Real

The Educational Dashboard is deliberately designed to be simple, visual, and educational. Whether in a classroom, visitor center, corporate HQ or public event, it helps people connect with the fascinating world of honey bees through live, reliable data.
