In partnership with the European Commission

00:01The cloudiness level in Pomerania, for example, is 60%.
00:06So optical imagery that we normally use
00:09couldn't be utilized for producing fertilization maps
00:14or just satellite monitoring.
00:16That's why we decided to use other type of satellite imagery, radar data.
00:21My zestawiamy dane radarowe z danymi referencyjnymi z pól uprawnych,
00:30takimi jak pomiary biomasy, inne informacje agronomiczne.
00:36BazujÄ…c na tym tworzymy modele uczenia maszynowego,
00:40dzięki czemu możemy sygnał radarowy przełożyć na mapy biomasy.
00:45I te mapy potem przekładamy na precyzyjne rekomendacje,
00:52patrząc w których miejscach na polu rośliny
00:56potrzebują odpowiednią ilość składnika.
01:03When I use Fertisat software, I can follow the recommendation
01:07from the software according to nitrogen fertilization.
01:10I click prepare the map, the map appears on the screen
01:14and then the map is uploaded to the tractor
01:17and we can start broadcasting fertilizer in the field.
