Remote Sensing Technology: The Mainstay of Digital Agriculture

Introduction Remote sensing, the ability to obtain information about an area or object without direct physical contact, in today’s time, acts as one of the biggest inputs for data-driven smart agriculture. “Digital agriculture” which is the use of new and advanced technology to enable smarter and more sustainable food production, depends largely on the availability… Continue reading Remote Sensing Technology: The Mainstay of Digital Agriculture

UAV FOR LANDPARCELS SURVEY AND MAPPING

Introduction Modeling using satellite imagery however has been identified as a significant approach for tracing larger parcels, such as farmland or forest plots. Earth observation satellites have a much large field of view than manned aerial imagery and much higher temporal resolutions, with performing frequent revisits during that same area on earth. Besides large regions, manned… Continue reading UAV FOR LANDPARCELS SURVEY AND MAPPING

GIS In Civil Engineering Applications

The field of civil engineering has come a long way. One type of technology that aids modern civil engineers is geographic information systems (GIS). GIS can be used by engineers to collect and analyze geographic data. The data can then be displayed in layered visualizations using digital geographic maps. GIS (geographic information system) software analyses,… Continue reading GIS In Civil Engineering Applications

Satellite images reveal underground forest Fungi

Underground forest fungi have a mutually beneficial relationship with the forest canopy .They use the carbohydrates produced by the canopies during photosynthesis in exchange of the nutrients brought by them as  these fungi spread across hundreds of miles underground in search of nutrients .These fungi are called Micorrhizal fungi.Richard Phillips of Indianan University, Bloomington is… Continue reading Satellite images reveal underground forest Fungi

Significance of Dams and their impact on Environment

Introduction   A barrier that is impervious in nature and is built across a river to create a reservoir on its upstream. This is a hydraulic structure made for various purposes. They are used to increase the amount of water available for generating hydroelectric power, to reduce peak discharge of floodwater created by large storms or… Continue reading Significance of Dams and their impact on Environment
