AGRI-AP: Applied Graphics and Rendering Innovation for Agricultural Precision

该项目将开发一种全新的软件技术，利用尖端计算进行复杂的数据分析，应用于精准农业。Soil Essentials是一家精准农业中小企业，将开发一个集成的软件解决方案，为种植者和农学家提供高分辨率的田间数据，以帮助他们做出早期决策。这将直接解决对新的信通技术创新的明确需求，以应对当前和未来的农业数据爆炸。这将改变田间作物监测，提高农业的效率和盈利能力，从而为子孙后代提供更健康、更实惠的食物。核心软件平台是跨部门的，同样可以应用于其他空间数据丰富的行业，如环境监测和国土安全。

This project will develop a radically new software technology by exploiting cutting-edge computation for complex data analyses, for application in precision agriculture. Soil Essentials, a precision farming SME, will produce an integrated software solution to present high-resolution field data to growers and agronomists to inform early decision making. This will directly address the clear identifiable need for new ICT innovation to tackle the current and future agricultural data explosion. This will transform in-field crop monitoring to improve efficiency & profitability of the farming industry, thereby enabling the provision of healthier, more affordable food for future generations. The core software platform is sector-cross cutting and can equally be applied to other spatial data-rich industries such as environmental monitoring and homeland security.
