BoostSat: Novel enabling IT technologies boosting efficient utilization of open satellite data in precision agriculture

Project information
The project focuses the issues of information fusion and data flows in order to develop functional information service concepts. We will consider two different tasks: optimizing the nitrogen fertilization and anomaly detection. In each task we will consider different combinations of satellite and insitu data. These methodologies will be connected to the weather based crop growth estimates.
