The present invention provides a system and method which includes a machine learning module which analyzes data collected from one or more sources such as UAVs, satellites, span mounted crop sensors, direct soil sensors and climate sensors. According to a further preferred embodiment, the machine learning module preferably creates sets of field objects from within a given field and uses the received data to create a predictive model for each defined field object based on detected characteristics from each field object within the field.

System and method for irrigation management using machine learning workflows

The present invention provides a system and method for tracking chemical applications and providing warnings regarding chemical exposure times. According to a preferred embodiment, the present invention provides a method which includes the steps of: receiving chemical application data; retrieving data regarding the chemical characteristics of the applied chemicals; receiving geo-location data identifying a target application area for the applied chemicals; calculating a probable application area based on a calculation of the potential drift of the applied chemicals beyond the target application area; calculating a buffer zone around the probable application area; calculating a safety boundary around the probable application area; calculating a geo-fence for the determined buffer zone; calculating a geo-fence for the probable application area; calculating an effective period for the probable application area; receiving location data regarding a registered user; comparing the received location data against the calculated geo-fence boundaries for the determined buffer zone and the probable application area; determining whether the first user is within a determined buffer zone; transmitting a notification or warning message to the user regarding entry into the buffer zone; determining whether the first user is within the probable application area; transmitting a notification to the user regarding entry into the probable application area; tracking the total time the first user is within the probable application area; and transmitting a notification to the first user regarding the total time the first user is within the probable application area.
