Dss for Precision Agriculture Using Geo-ict & Wsn Technologies Sudharsan Dhanachandran

Recent technological developments allowed to envision the low-power (solar power) and low-cost (open hardware) sensor devices (AgriSen/FieldServer/Flux Tower/FieldTwitter) with multi-mode (zigbee/Wifi/3G/WebGIS) information & communication technologies (ICTs), a model on which is christened as GeoSense. Integrating these multi-mode and multi-level communication systems with distributed ambient sensory network location based service (LBS) is a challenging task, which could be a potential technology for monitoring various natural phenomena. This integrated model is introduced to provide and assist the rural stakeholders with real-time decision support system (DSS) with dynamic information and modeling services for precision agriculture through GeoSene cloud service. This GeoSense research has been experimented in semi-arid tropics in India.
