An interoperable platform for the digital transformation of the agricultural sector

Abstract

One of the objectives of the agricultural sector is to increase the competitiveness, quantity, and quality of the products obtained, optimizing the use of natural and energy resources. The fact that sensors, actuators, and other agricultural devices are connected through the Internet gives us the possibility of developing interoperable solutions aligned with European standards to meet the requirements of any monitoring and control scenario. This work presents a platform that allows for the integration of sensor networks, as well as different systems responsible for the management of agricultural production. Generating, therefore, solution that provides the farmer with tools to improve decision making. The document details the 3-layer architecture, the integration with the water management model promoted by the TRAGSA Group through NGSI-LD, the integration with GIS and the deployments carried out together with the benefits they have generated.
