GEOPOTATO (Late Blight Alert for Potato)

Background

Geopotato is a geodata driven decision support system (DSS) that provides early alert to registered farmers for spraying preventive fungicide via SMS and Voice Message three (3) days prior to a possible late blight attack. GEOPOTATO DSS combines satellite image processing data of potato crop biomass growth and real-time weather data from Automatic Weather Stations (AWS) to determine conducive environment for late blight attack.
