3. 01 What Is GIS In Agriculture?

4. GIS is a tool that lets users create multi-layered interactive maps that can be used for the  visualization of complex data and for  spatial analysis . How is GIS related to agriculture? The use of GIS in agriculture enables farmers to map field data, organize and analyze it, and monitor their crops remotely. What is GIS in Agriculture?

5. With the use of GIS, farmers may maximize their land’s potential in terms of yield increase and financial savings, not to mention reduced environmental effects. The scope of modern agriculture has expanded beyond domestic farmlands to encompass the entire planet. This is why GIS solutions with constant multi-factor danger assessments are so crucial in today’s agriculture. How does GIS improve agriculture?

6. 02 GIS Data : How it is done?

7. Agricultural GIS Data: Where It Comes From And How It’s Processed Hardware, software, and information all come together in GIS technology. Any device, from a simple laptop or desktop computer to something more complex like a satellite or a drone, can serve as the hardware. GIS software utilizes maps to display spatial data. Images are created using a variety of GIS technologies and then linked to relevant maps and data that is hidden from view.  What you end up with is a map not only showing the location and overall health of your crops but also taking into account other relevant factors such as terrain,  soil type , and fertilization.

8. Remote sensing involves aerial or satellite scans of the Earth’s surface.  The  Landsat 8  is an observation satellite that orbits Earth every 16 days. It records nine visible light bands helping assess crop health, nutrient content, insect infestation, or moisture. Not only does Landsat 8 record visible light, but also invisible to the human eye thermal infrared radiation (TIR)  Remote Sensing

9. GPS and GIS integration lets farmers collect real-time data, including position. In other words, agriculture producers may  boost resource utilization efficiency  by employing gadgets to precisely plot where to use these resources on a given farm. GPS-enabled field mapping helps analyze crop varieties, elevation levels, field boundaries, irrigation systems, etc.   GPS

10. 03 Application of GIS

11. The number of GIS applications in agriculture has exploded in recent years thanks to technological advancements.

12. Presicion agriculture Precision agriculture GIS software provides detailed vegetation and productivity maps, including crop information, for making reasonable decisions. Agriculture GIS tools can identify vegetation levels in your field or any of its areas. Agriculture machinery can then use this information to adjust seed, nutrients, herbicides, and fertilizer amounts for each plot. Productivity map based on historical data, identifying more and less productive areas in the field.

13. Agriculture Mapping Soil and crop analysis can be facilitated by satellite sensors, allowing the creation of soil index maps and maps of vegetation indices such as the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). Agriculture GIS mapping aids field monitoring and management for successful crop production Comparing the NDVI and MSAVI indices to assess vegetation at an early stage of crop development.

14. Crop Health Monitoring Manually checking crops across a large area is the slowest and most labor-intensive method of monitoring crop health. Remote sensing and GIS in agriculture are lifesavers for this. GIS-based  precision agriculture  can help you prioritize which crops need extra care. Imagery sensors on satellites and aircraft provide an advanced method for monitoring crop temperatures. An abnormally high temperature could indicate disease, pest infestation, or dehydration.

15. Livestock Monitoring Agriculture GIS software is essential for  tracking animals’ movements  in animal husbandry. GIS agriculture tools help farmers locate livestock on a farm and monitor their health, growth, fertility, and nutrition. Animal trackers and a portable device that can receive and display tracker data enable this application.

16. Insect And Pest Control Crop Monitoring aids in detecting various risks, from weeds to  crop diseases , by using field-collected vegetation indices. If the index map indicates low vegetation in a small area , meaning the possible presence of a parasite or disease there , a scout no longer has to investigate a large field. After identifying the probable infection zone using the vegetation index, you can use the Scouting feature to narrow your target area.  Identifying areas of low vegetation in the field to minimize the area for inspection with EOSDA Crop Monitoring.

17. Dry spells, as well as extreme precipitation in low-lying areas without adequate drainage, can ruin crop output. Through agriculture GIS technology, farmers may  assess the degree of water stress  experienced by each crop and  recognize visual patterns that suggest an oversupply or deficiency of water , which can be used to regulate irrigation. Irrigation Control

18. 04 GIS in sustainable agriculture

19. With the growing population, ensuring that there will always be enough food for everybody is critical. With the help of GIS technology, governments, activists, scientists, and agriculture producers may study and develop methods to ensure food supply and, by extension, the survival of the human species. For instance, the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has been using GIS and other  geospatial technologies  to establish sustainable food systems  worldwide for over 30 years. GIS and Sustainable Agriculture

20. monitor water supplies and forecast droughts; estimate and predict yields; evaluate the economic and environmental effects of human activities combine and analyze agriculture data from several sources; share data and maps between departments and organizations; serve as an online information and guidance resource for local communities. Organizations working on sustainable development use GIS to:
