  Internet of Things (IoT) systems have seen recent growth in popularity for
city and home environments. We report on the design, deployment and use of IoT
infrastructure for environmental monitoring and management. Working closely
with hydrologists, soil scientists and animal behaviour scientists, we
successfully deployed and utilised a system to deliver integrated information
across these two fields in the first such example of real-time
multi-dimensional environmental science. We describe the design of this system,
its requirements and operational effectiveness for hydrological, soil and
ethological scientists, and our experiences from building, maintaining and
using the deployment at a remote site in difficult conditions. Based on this
experience we discuss key future work for the IoT community when working in
these kinds of environmental deployments.
