System crop monitoring directly from the phone with GeoScan

The third application, with which you can optimize work processes on the farm and in the field, is to the system GeoScan.

The platform for crop monitoringis of the most advanced technologies for the analysis and processing of satellite images and allows the capture of large territories in a short time.

Thanks to the images obtained, you have the possibility to follow in real time the progress of the crops and the quality of the treatments - without having to physically crawl the fields. But also to identify problem areas and take timely measures to improve yield.

Through mobile appGeoScan you have the opportunity to visit on the spot the problem area established on the map. Thanks to a photo from the camera of the device and additional notes, you will have a detailed database of crop development and the necessary agrotechnical measures.

With the mobile app you can also:

• Recognize problem areas experiencing stress;
• To recognize the places in need of agrotechnical measures;
• Recognize areas with different potential productivity.

The GeoScan mobile app supports field survey activities, also helping you with farm planning and reporting.
