Today, we’re going to design a technological solution to help us protect our different Hope Spots.

You can complete this project a few different ways:

Use

Follow a step-by-step tutorial to build and use a Hope Spot monitoring station built from a reclaimed oil rig. This station will protect against overfishing. It detect fishing vessels using sonar, sends warnings as ships approach, and logs data about how frequently ships pass by.

Modify

Follow a step-by-step tutorial to build the same Hope Spot station, but modify the code and hardware to improve its efficiency or add additional features.

Create

Design, build, and code your own technological solution to address the unique threats in your nominated Hope Spot.
