Crop damage detection based on remote sensing data and with the help of artificial intelligence

Weingarten - The use of digital information from satellites - so-called remote sensing data - can help to make agriculture more sustainable and efficient. The possible applications are diverse, but require consideration of the advantages and disadvantages of the technology.

In the seminar, Marcel Winzen and Sherif elSayed will therefore provide a technological insight into the possible applications of satellite data in agriculture. The results of their research so far show that the data could help to reduce the use of fertilizers and insecticides, monitor crop damage and check crop rotations. They would also like to discuss the requirements to be met and possible restrictions. The two speakers are addressing the seminar in particular to farmers, engineers, students in the fields of IT, aerospace, agriculture and environmental NGOs.

Marcel Winzen and Sherif elSayed are founders of the Nabta Playa e.V. Institute. The German non-profit research organization specializes in the data analytics sector to use AI and satellite data to solve societal challenges. Over the past four years, Nabta Playa has managed to raise funding, lead research projects and build partnerships with various organizations in Europe and Africa.
