UC 1.2 Precision crop management

Developing crop chlorophyll content

1) what is the latest success of your use case?

We are developing a new method to estimate the crop chlorophyll content from RGB images and a low cost multispectral sensor. This variable is particularly important to manage the nitrogen input for annual crops.

2) what are the latest developments in your use case?

We are exploring the potential uses of 5G connection with our partner Orange. This technology allows optimization of sensors’ connectivity properties.

3) how does Covid-19 influences the work on your use case right now?

Also we expected to be able to practice more field data acquisitions to validate our new solution to estimation crop chlorophyll content but this was unfortunately not possible to keep the planning.
