Awaiting Public Project Summary

Information on crop growth is an important metric allowing analysis of agricultural productivity, prediction of yield and prescription of appropriate interventions. This project will develop a service based on crop growth indices derived from time series of satellite radar data, emerging technology that was initially developed by RSAC in the MASCOTS proje...

The project will investigate the use of archive satellite imagery to predict spatial variability within arable fields. Many applications of precision agriculture use current satellite imagery to provide guidance on localised management operations, for example application of Nitrogen fertiliser, but assumptions have to be made about the causes of spatial v...

Awaiting Public Project Summary

Local authorities such as Hampshire County Council (HCC) have huge archives of aerial photography and satellite image data that contain an abundance of information relating to changes in the landscape. However, because of the volume and complexity of the data and the lack of resources and political will, their value is not being fully realised. Crowdsourc...

Anglian Water needs detailed, up to date and consistent information on cropping within its drinking water catchment to better understand catchment risks and to target mitigation measures with greater accuracy and efficiency. The forthcoming Copernicus Sentinel-1 mission is designed specifically to service operational applications, including agriculture, w...

The CropID system will classify horticultural crops using a machine learning approach integrating; multi-spectral satellite imagery, synthetic aperture radar data, soil properties, physical field characteristics. Image processing algorithms will be used to segment crops based on spectral reflectance, colour and texture. Satellite images acquired through t...
