The Region of Central Greece, with the cooperation of DOTSOFT, is proceeding with the implementation of an important project entitled “Apps using Internet of Things (IoT) technologies to support local agricultural production with innovative tools”, within the framework of the “ANTONIS TRITSIS” program and the priority axis “Digital Convergence”.
The project is part of the wider action “Intelligent digital applications to strengthen policy in the protection – safety, health and agricultural production program in the Region of Central Greece” and aims to strengthen rural development by using innovative digital technologies.
The object of the project is the development, installation and use of an integrated agricultural production support system with technologies Internet of Things (IoT), which will include:
- Precision Agriculture Systems for outdoor and tree crops
- Online management and “smart” greenhouse control
- Integrated system“Green” traceability
- Biosensor systems for the well-being and monitoring of the health of productive animals
The system will be based on an extensive network of wireless sensors that record critical environmental, soil, water, crop and livestock parameters. The data will be aggregated in Central Information Management System, which with the help of specific algorithms will provide best practices and strategies for production management.
The application of advanced geoinformatics technologies, sensor networks and telecommunications interfaces makes the project pioneering for Greek agriculture, offering possibilities such as:
- Remote data entry via mobile devices (PDA) with two-way communication with WebGIS applications
- Personalized information services for producers, agronomists and stakeholders, in full compliance with the provisions for sustainable production
- Real-time monitoring of critical output parameters with sensors per unit
The implementation of the project strengthens the competitiveness, quality and sustainability of agricultural production in the Region of Central Greece, marking a decisive step towards the digital transformation of primary production and the support of local producers with high-tech tools.
