Abstract

The use of technology in the development of agriculture is growing tremendously. Geospatial technology is one such technology. In this paper the emphasis is on providing best solutions in agribusiness, improving farm productivity, improving soil and water resources, and ultimately benefiting farmers with the help of geospatial technology. We analyzed two case studies by using this technology. In the first case study, the satellite-based estimated acreage and spatial distribution map helped the end-user in knowing the density of plantation. In the second case, studies were conducted on watershed development by using satellite images without visiting the field. The main objective of sensing agriculture from space is to address the issues of end-user in precision agriculture value chain using remote sensing, Geographic Information System (GIS) and Global Positioning System (GPS).
