Automatic Farm Managment System in Modern Cities Using Image Processing
Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 2
Abstract
Recent technological advances have paved the way for developing and offering advanced services for the stakeholders in the agricultural sector. A paradigm shift is underway from proprietary and monolithic tools to Internet-based, open systems that will enable more effective collaboration between stakeholders. This new paradigm includes the technological support of application developers to create specialized services that will seamlessly interoperate, thus creating a sophisticated and customisable working environment for the end users. We present the implementation of an open architecture that instantiates such an approach, based on a set of domain independent software tools called ‘‘generic enablers’’ that have been developed in the context of the FI-WARE project. The implementation is used to validate a number of innovative concepts for the agricultural sector such as the notion of a services’ market place and the system’s adaptation to network failures. During the design and implementation phase, the system has been evaluated by end users, offering us valuable feedback. The results of the evaluation process validate the acceptance of such a system and the need of farmers to have access to sophisticated services at affordable prices. A summary of this evaluation process is also presented in this project. The system consists of sensor networks and a software control system. The sensor network consists of temperature sensor,humidity sensor,soil moisture sensor. The readings obtained from the sensors or the inline cameras are feed for image processing methods and algorithms for grading. A few to name them are classifiers like neural network and fuzzy based classifier. The hardware control center communicates with a middleware system via serial network interface converters. The middleware communicates with a hardware network using an underlying interface and it also communicates with a web system using an upper interface. The top web system provides users with an interface to view and manage the hardware facilities ; administrators can thus view the status of agricultural status in order to remotely manage the temperature, humidity and irrigation.
