Sensor data analysis and sensor management for crop monitoring.

Abstract

During crop growth there are microclimate variations that can affect them. Some variations, such as slight frost, if repeated many times can affect the yield of the crops. These variations can be monitored by a wireless sensor network and the estimated yield of the crop can be adjusted by analyzing the data. This work proposes a system that manages a wireless sensor network to monitor environmental variables, stores the data it receives and enables different types of users to analyze data. The users can be network admins or agronomists. The proposal includes the use of Geographic Information Technologies to display the data
