12. Experiences in the Development of Commercial Web-Based Data Engines to Support UK Growers Within an Industry-Academic PartnershipThe lifecycle of Precision Agriculture data begins the moment that the measurement is taken, after which it may pass through each multiple data processes until finally arriving as an output employed back in the production system. This flow can be hindered by the fact that many farm datasets have different spatial resolutions. This makes the process to aggregate or analyse multiple Precision Agriculture layers arduous and time consuming. Precision Decisions Ltd located in Yorkshire,... J. Taylor, Y. Shahar, P. James, C. Blacker, S. Leese, R. Sanderson, R. Kavanagh |
13. Developing a Machine Learning and Proximal Sensing-based In-season Site-specific Nitrogen Management Strategy for Corn in the US MidwestEffective in-season site-specific nitrogen (N) management strategies are urgently needed to ensure both food security and sustainable agricultural development.

Lowenberg-deboer, G. Milics |
18. Sampling Bumble Bees and Floral Resources Using Deep Learning and UAV ImageryPollinators, essential components of natural and agricultural systems, forage over relatively large spatial scales. This is especially true of large generalist species, like bumble bees. Thus, it can be difficult to estimate the amount and diversity of floral resources available to them. Floral cover and diversity are often estimated over large areas by extrapolation from small scale samples (e.g., a 1-m quadrat) but the accuracy of such estimates can vary depending on the spatial patchiness of...
