Digital Advisory Services for Rural Farmers: Phase III Developing ML Pipeline

This Omdena Local Chapter Challenge runs for 8 weeks and is a unique experience to try and grow your skills in a collaborative and safe environment with a diverse mix of people from all over the world. 

You will work on solving a local problem, initiated by Cracow, Poland Chapter, North Carolina, USA Chapter.

The problem

We are looking at attempting to input a GPS coordinate, the system processes and segments the image into fields, and then uses the trained LSTM to identify which crops are being grown in the area to identify particular risks due to fungus, insects, and weather. The NDVI historical reading is also of some use to the farmer because they can monitor the growth of their crops as the weather and advisory conditions changes. This will be useful in fields to identify if weather or plant diseases have been affected by conditions.

The goals

Make LSTM pipeline, implement NDVI graphs, implement weather advisory, and monitor effects on NDVI for the Area of Interest.
