Remote Sensing and GPS Services 

Remote sensing takes place on two levels.  On a micro level it aids in determining crop stress, while on a macro level serves to identify planted land thus aiding in yield forecasting.  The remote sensing service offered by Farm-IT is supplied via the Internet with an internet-based recordkeeping system.

If the farmer subscribes to this service, he receives five images throughout the growing season.  These images aid in determining plant reaction according to climate as well as management activities.  Accurate decisions can be made using these comprehensive records.

 

The accuracy of areas of land/management zones is supplied by making use of GPS surveying.  GPS soil-mapping provides the farmer and the agriculturist with accurate information enabling better decision-making based on soil-mapping.
