Monitoring and analysis of livestock farm environments require collection and management of large amount of data from distributed farms. There is an increasing demand for collaboration among livestock producers, environment agencies and governments. This paper presents a collaborative system for monitoring and analyzing livestock farm odours remotely, and for enhancing the collaboration among users. This system utilizes a web-based portal application as the infrastructure for running distributed applications. Livestock farm odour information is stored in central servers. Distributed users can access the data remotely, submit odour data for analysis, receive analysis results through the Internet, exchange information, and discuss odour related topics on public forums. This collaborative system provides a collaborative, robust, and user-friendly environment for distributed users to efficiently manage and process the data records, share the analysis results and other information.
