EOLO
Earth Observation Low Orbit

EOLO aims to provide the corn growers an agritech cloud-based platform which allows to save water and energy by predicting the optimal water needs, monitor crop health through the use of vegetational indexes and control the irrigation system remotely. These features are implemented by leveraging both EO satellite and on-ground sensors data and by fusing them with machine learning algorithms.

EOLO develops a precision agriculture cloud-based platform having the following goals:

1. Save water and related energy costs by providing a forecast of the optimal water needs by exploiting both EO and on-ground sensors data, avoiding extra costs due to overirrigation and yield reduction due to underirrigation.
2. Monitor the crop health by using EO-derived vegetational indexes to prevent the onset of diseases and/or lacking of nutrients.
3. Revamping of the irrigation system to allow its remote control
