Project BEESWAX aims to optimally place beehives to improve pollination through three prototypes: BEESWAX I developed the initial concept in Matlab; BEESWAX II expanded functionality in Excel but was impractical; BEESWAX III simplified the model in Octave and is undergoing field tests, balancing beekeeping practices with honeybee foraging ranges. It is a collaboration between Simul Systems Ltd and the University of Essex to develop a practical solution using limited funding.
