The project

From flowering landscapes to better honey

BEE-OPTECH4Honey develops an integrated, data-driven framework for modern beekeeping operations in Türkiye and Malta, led by INTALA LAB at Işık University together with the University of Malta.

Honey characterisation

Characterising monofloral honeys such as thyme, citrus, sunflower and carob through laboratory analyses.

Foraging-site suitability

Identifying lands suitable for beekeeping from satellite and UAV imagery with GIS-based models.

Assignment and routes

Optimisation models that assign beekeepers to nectar sites and plan migratory routes across flowering periods.

Integrated platform

An integrated information system that brings models, data and stakeholders together.

Platform 2.0

Built for collaboration and trust

The foundation release establishes secure identity, institutional governance and communication; scientific modules build on it.

Multi-institutional

Research institutes, universities and associations manage their own members with strict data isolation.

Guided registration

Beekeepers register online, verify their e-mail address and are approved by their institution.

Secure access

Two-factor authentication is mandatory for administrators, managers and laboratory specialists.

Turkish and English

Every screen, message and e-mail is available in Turkish and English.

Real-time notifications

In-app notifications arrive in real time, with reliable e-mail delivery for important events.

Accountable by design

Critical operations are recorded in a tamper-resistant audit trail with correlation identifiers.
