The Boonsong Lekagul Nature Preserve is used by local residents and tourists for day-trips, overnight camping or sometimes just passing through to access main thoroughfares on the opposite sides of the preserve.  The entrance booths of the preserve are monitored in order to generate revenue as well as monitor usage. Vehicles entering and exiting the preserve must pay a fee based on their number of axles (personal auto, recreational trailer, semi-trailer, etc.).  This generates a data stream with entry/exit timestamps and vehicle type. There are also other locations in the part that register traffic passing through. While hiking through the various parts of the preserve, Mitch has noticed some odd behaviors of vehicles that he doesn’t think are consistent with the kinds of park visitors he would expect. If there were some way that Mitch could analyze the behaviors of vehicles through the park over time, this may assist him in his investigations.

Uncovering evidence with water studies

Kasios’ spokespersons have denied any accusation of industrial waste dumping. They have emphasized that there is no ground contamination near the remote ranger station as suggested by last year’s challenge. Ornithologists from Mistford College have tried to take soil samples from the site to prove the existence of ground contamination. However, they have found that new top soil has been used to cover the site rendering any soil sampling approach useless. Without soil sampling, these ornithologists have instead turned to water sensor readings in the hope of proving contamination.
