The project will perform an experimental campaign to investigate the potential of Sentinel-2 and PRISMA data to estimate and predict the concentration of different nutrients (K, P, Ca, Fe, Mg, Zn, N and S) in the final agricultural production.
The SenCYF project proposes an innovative crop yield forecasting model based on Sentinel-2 data, validated with a France-wide in situ yield data set. It aims at addressing two core scientific questions: What are the performances of a nation-wide S2-based winter wheat yield estimation model at farm level? What are the performances of a nation-wide S2-based …
The World Bank’s Crisis & Disaster Risk Finance (CDRF) team is coordinating the Next Generation of Drought Index Project (NGDI) effort, through a research consortium led by IRI and including IWMI and AIR Worldwide, to catalyze transformation of insurance development. With technical support from ESA, NGDI is developing a practical framework for a set of …

ESA’s Sentinels for Evapotranspiration project, or Sen-ET for short, is exploiting machine learning techniques to combine Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-3 data for a 20m daily evapotranspiration monitoring in agricultural fields. Read the full story.
Accurate measurement of precipitation over the relevant space and time scales is a challenge. The SMOS+RAINFALL project has the objective to ingest satellite soil moisture information derived from ASCAT, SMOS and SMAP into the latest state-of-the-art satellite precipitation products like those derived from the Global Precipitation Measurement mission (GPM) to enhance rainfall observation accuracy over land. Access the datasets generated by …
According to the World Economic Forum the production of agriculture commodities including palm oil, soy, beef, timber, cocoa and rubber are accounting for the majority of deforestation world-wide. This ‘deforestation trajectory’ is directly associated with a growing carbon footprint of basic food staples therefore a wide range of new programmes and agribusinesses commitments emerge to …
