Advisory Board: Three Advisory Board were established (ID,ET,EU)
UCD Research and Business Development: Requirement assessment with 2802 stakeholders followed UCD workshops with users and experts in Indonesia and Ethiopia. Moreover, market surveys were conducted and 54 businesses models were developed. Based on the research results, SAMS ICT solutions (hardware, software and Api-management) were developed.
Manual on Beehive Construction and Operation: Based on local experiences a manual was developed. Beehive characteristics of each target country were considered.
Implementation of SAMS beehive monitoring system prototypes: 121 SAMS hive monitoring systems were installed ( 50 in ID, 46 in ET, 25 in EU - Romania, Latvia and Germany)
Data Warehouse: The Data Warehouse (DW) can be considered as a universal system which is able to operate with different data inputs and have flexible data processing algorithms. Within SAMS the DW is implemented as a cloud-based data storage and processing unit with capabilities to combine different data sources like existing systems and available on-apiary generated data. DW is publicly available and accessible online:
https://sams.science.itf.llu.lv/(se abrirá en una nueva ventana)Decision Support System (DSS): The Decision Support System (DSS) shall supports beekeepers in automatically identify different bee colony states and informs the beekeeper if some activities are necessary. The user interface (UI) prototype of the DSS SAMS data display for beekeepers (for mobile devices) was developed in Figma software and evaluated in usability tests per target country, it is available in Amharic, Bahasa Indonesia and English. The DSS with analysing models was implemented into the SAMS DW for demonstration purposes, as well.
Capacity Building: 1077 new and existing beekeepers were trained on Hive Construction, SAMS system implementation and application as well as Bee-Management and Bee-Healthin t in Austria, Ethiopia, Indonesia and Latvia.
Catalogue indicators regarding specific threats: 10 rules for beekeeping as well as target country specific problems related to beekeeping were identified to improve bee management and bee health. The 10 rules were evaluated, visualized and are available in Amharic, Bahasa Indonesia and English on the knowledge and data management base – the SAMSwiki.
Data management base: Within the Api-Management, the situation of honeybees and beekeeping in Ethiopia and Indonesia was contextualized and made publicly within SAMSwiki. SAMSwiki is open source and was established to give information about bee-management and bee-health:

Partnerships: Three International partnerships on business development (PS1), data management and utilization (PS2), and technology and services (PS3) were established to sustain, refine and disseminate the SAMS results. In total, 42 partners joined the partnerships during SAMS project time: PS1 =16 partners from Indonesia, Ethiopia and Germany; PS2 = 13 partners from Austria, Australia, Denmark, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Latvia and USA; PS3 =13 partners from Latvia, Romania, Germany, Indonesia, and Ethiopia.
Dissemination: via www.sams-project.eu & Twitter @SAMS_EU_H2020 (Direct outreach: 249.131; indirect: 7.412.437)
Exploitation of SAMS results: Uptake of Business Models, SAMS Partnerships, further deployment of SAMS Data Warehouse and SAMSwiki, Establishment of DSS, reuse of SAMS data
