Abstract
Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems (GIAHS) are models of sustainability, as they ensure a balance between human activity and ecosystem conservation. The Barroso region in Portugal is part of this network, as it follows traditional natural resource management and resilience practices by local communities. Given the threats posed by environmental degradation, it is urgent to adopt technological solutions for monitoring these conditions. Thus, throughout this article, the main threats to the integrity of these territories will be analyzed, and various methodologies and solutions for environmental monitoring will be presented. Based on the knowledge acquired, we will present an architecture for a digital solution that includes sensors, the Internet of Things (IoT), processing units, and platforms for real-time data visualization and alarm management.
