About this technology
Overview
Under a 2014 SBIR contract with Goddard Space Flight Center, GeoVisual Analytics of Boulder, Colorado, improved techniques for using satellite imagery to classify land and assess vegetation indexes. The work spawned the Computer Learning Imagery Platform (CLIP), now used with drone images to assess the types, stages of growth, and health of crops in fields for Taylor Farms, the product_s first customer and the world_s largest fresh-cut vegetable producer. This allows Taylor Farms to predict annual yields.
