Local Peoples' Choice Winner

Home Planet at Your Fingertips

Develop a user-friendly application or tool to discover, visualize, and analyze NASA Earth data for monitoring our home planet.

Sustainable Precision Agriculture Development App

Summary

Our app enables real-time inspection of field crops using satellite imagery and GPS to reduce the amount of time farmers need to tend to their crops.

How We Addressed This Challenge

The application allows inspectors to inspect agriculture labs via satellite images and terrestrial resources. We will continue to beta test the application and make it available for commercial use. We will also formalize our team via a memorandum of understanding and other requirements and participate in the CYBERCORPS project.


Future iterations of the app will enable developers and urban planners to identify areas that could be converted into urban farms to increase access to fresh produce and reduce travel distance between growth and distribution of food to sustainably cultivate green space in the urban and peri-urban environment. We will leverage thermal imaging and GIS to detect cultivatable areas within and around urban ecosystems in order to to improve urban agriculture and access to clean, sustainable produce.

How We Developed This Project

(This may be a true account of a mid-hackathon event. However, according to footprints, team collaboration was recovered. We have no idea how.)


Dear IUPAC & Board: I braced a root meriSTEM in vile wastewater and tears, registered together

and joined my crew as a ghastly stew pigeon plumed in ignorance of duty assigned to "Presentation Expert[ise]," or perhaps cast to tell the tale as a hyacinthine macaw. Recursive with statements of "Green Space," I profess with bleeding phalanges soaked in 70% ethanol. My final orders are mind-etched like a "Blockchain" of echolalic orders carved in Abalone: "Google Bromate dpb" {...} "Dpb" ever haunted by User Object: "Did you mean: bromate dpb"


Across bottlecap lenses in an ocean of script & selenium, for all I know, my Teammates are Chatbots, Saints, or Deep Savages. All AWOL! They may have canibalized over "Pixels," quicksand-shackled by daemons of "SwaggerHub," walked-a-plank, drained a battery, or abandoned overboard for some emergent cutlass respondency plausibly fork/chopstick-carved hyoid soaked in ruminant whale blubber "Odor" "Wastewater," "QnA," or "5% Battery" brigade. Ever humbled by their souls and ghosts; yere lurking across a daggerboard of platforms burried in "hashtags," "Abstracts" and "60 or 80" meters squared lore mapped with abbreviations such as A.I. and QnA, I developed an argonaut of respect able to draft this testament of our enterprise vessel deceptively mislabeled stew to entice tastebuds: "Broken Silo."


We entice you with #SPACEJAM&BC. The collective of our team grew and tubed sustainable (arduously pirate-able) nutrients like "Green Space" jelly & jam on "Wheat" toasted with "placeholder" data and trimmings of crust where none could ever be fathomably possible. I learned much as the We successfully recruited an artificial intelligence expert and possibly secured some aliens underway. 


This statement reiterates I learned much, and may have drained my teammates as they explained I we may have bent some rules that were my bad:






  • Commander Sinoe developed savory sustainable space agriculture was last heard hours ago via Microsoft Teams with 5% Battery, which he drained answering questions
  • Our Principal Investigator had a family emergency
  • We Utilized membership channels that are not open source to recruit


Sincerely,


The Parrot

How We Used Space Agency Data in This Project

We used images on NASA.gov to develop a no-code application.
