Geospatial technologies for crops and soils involve using tools like GIS, remote sensing, and GPS in agriculture. They contribute to precision agriculture by providing detailed information about field conditions, enabling variable rate application, monitoring yield variations, assessing crop health, optimizing soil management, facilitating precision irrigation, and offering decision support systems for data-driven farming decisions.
Geospatial technologies for crops and soils a novel tool for the food, nutritional, environmental, and economic security for the future generations under limited natural resources. This book will be helpful for the producers, researchers, teachers, and policymakers to deal with the future alarming issues .Geospatial technology is a field that is rapidly evolving. Geographic information systems (GIS), global positioning systems (GPS), and remote sensing (RS), all new technologies that aid the user in the collecting, analysis, and interpretation of spatial data, are referred to as geospatial technology (GST). It is concerned with the relationship and state of artificial and natural objects in space, whether on Earth or elsewhere .Current GIS applications are presented including surface hydrologic and groundwater modeling, water supply and sewer system modeling, storm water and nonpoint source pollution modeling for urban and agricultural areas, and other related applications.
