Programme: Rural Development Programme

The project will be implemented through selection, testing and analysis of innovative applicable distant monitoring methods, sensory analyzes, multi-spectral aeronautics and satellite data, as well as testing and use of unmanned aerial vehicles for the purposes of land and agriculture management, with subsequent integration of data into ICT. They will be subjected to tests and programs for artificial intelligence, GIS, applications of the Internet of Things, to evaluate the ability to retrieve, process and use information from remote surveys in favor of the general public. The holdings are selected so as to give as wide range of agricultural activities as possible. Different available remote sensing technologies will be tested and compared with traditional practices applied in the respective holdings. For the implementation of the project, field surveys will be carried out and office analyzes will be carried out on the farms of the group of farmers. The effects measured will be demonstrated, such as difficulty, lead time, positives and negatives, costs and benefits with respect to differentiated farm activities. Based on the results, a strategy and methodology will be drawn up for the implementation of these methods in agriculture, so that the best results can be achieved in terms of cost and efficiency and services will be presented through a common platform.
