Project Objectives

“The ability to trace the history, application location of an entity by means of recordedIdentifications”

Definition of Traceability: ISO 8402

Creation of Geo-identifierCreation of Geo-identifier

GIS for Field Activity Mapping

Acquisition and processing of geographic referenced farm level dataGeographical traceability indicators will relate production lots and their environment.web based infrastructure manage geographical traceability information

Results

Figure 2 above shows partial GIS based Farm Traceability Model

GIS connects to simultaneous serial real-time data streams in the field (i.e. GPS, SCUFA, 10-AU)GIS combines incoming data and maps the readings in real-time as subsequent dots. The subsequent GPS readings (combine, cart) are overlaid on a rectified aerial photograph so that the actual position of each activity in relation to the study area (Farm) can be determined.

Creation of web based infrastructure that will help to manage geographical Creation of web based infrastructure that will help to manage geographical traceability informationtraceability information

Next Steps

Figure 1 above shows the how farm management data can be related to specific geographic location (LOT) by using GIS based database management tool

Figure 3 above shows the lot dynamics and transformation of lots at the farm

Figure 4 above shows the real-time data acquisition for a single lot
