Problem
Traditional vineyard monitoring relies on manual scouting and uniform treatment applications, which are time-consuming, imprecise, and often result in unnecessary chemical use. Winegrowers lack timely, field-level data on plant stress and disease presence, making it difficult to target interventions only where and when they are needed.
Solution
Sharpsat combines Earth Observation satellite imagery with machine learning to deliver a user-friendly web platform that monitors vineyard health and detects diseases early. The platform supports farmer decisions by displaying areas of stress directly on the vineyard map, allowing time-based visualization and easy navigation between non-adjacent vineyard plots. It provides a Plant Health Indicator based on NDVI maps, ranging from vibrant green to cautionary red, to vividly illustrate crop health status. A Hydration Plant Indicator is also offered through a comprehensive Moisture Map to help farmers manage irrigation effectively. The solution aims to reduce overall treatments by enabling targeted, data-driven interventions.
Target Audience
Primary customers are winegrowers and vineyard managers seeking precision agriculture tools, as well as agritech professionals and winemakers looking to adopt sustainable crop monitoring practices.
