TLDR
In this paper, the authors take a survey of elephant tracking using different methodologies and to help both human and the elephant to reduce human elephant conflict in the forest border areas, where the human habitat is troubled by the entry of wild elephants.Abstract:
Human Elephant Conflict has been a major issue in the forest border areas, where the human habitat is troubled by the entry of wild elephants. This makes HEC a major real time environmental based on research problem. The aim of this paper is to reduce HEC, by identifying the nature of the elephants as proposed by many ecology professors and researchers. The conflict varies depending on the field and the habitation of human and elephant. Hence the objective is to take a survey of elephant tracking using different methodologies and to help both human and the elephant. This article completely focus on the field based on survey, caused by both human and elephant and the technical and Non-technical methodologies used for elephant tracking. This paper also has a proposed methodology using seismic sensors (Vibration) with high quality video cameras. These methodologies illustrate a crystal clear view of elephant path tracking. The outcome of the proposed methodology expects to produce an early warning system, which tries to save the life of both human and elephants.read more

The IoT based embedded system for the detection and discrimination of animals to avoid human–wildlife conflict
TL;DR: An early warning message which contains an animal type, age, elephant SOM, global positioning system (GPS) tracks its location information and all this information will be transmitted via global system for mobile communication (GSM) to the forest authorities, local communities, radio station or local channels indicating that an animal movement is near to forest border areas.
Asian elephant movements between natural and human-dominated landscapes mirror patterns of crop damage in Sri Lanka
TL;DR: In this article , the authors monitored elephant movements in and out of a forest reserve in central Sri Lanka to test four predictions regarding elephant behaviour: (1) visits to agricultural areas occur at times of the year when crops are plentiful, (2) elephants exploit these areas by night to avoid interactions with people, (3) increased nocturnal illumination reduces use of agricultural areas, and (4) males make greater use of anthropogenic food sources than family groups.

Prototype Solution for Human-Elephant Conflict using Secondary Data
C.D. Thilakarathne,Dinushi Samarawickrama,Harshana Serasinghe,N. Kuruwitaarachchi,Uthpala Samaratunga +4 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors used a secondary dataset of seismic waves generated by elephant footfalls and involved logistic regression which is capable of getting multiple input variables and generating a binary output.

Crop-raiding elephants and conservation implications at Way Kambas National Park, Sumatra, Indonesia
TL;DR: In this article, the distribution, impact and conservation implications of elephant crop-raiding in 13 villages that border Way Kambas National Park in southern Sumatra were studied for 18 months based on rapid village and field assessments, data logs maintained by village observers and a quantitative household survey.
