Session Spotlight: Earth Observation – The Next Frontier

At CAPIGI we present the latest development is Earth Observation. Come and explore the latest and upcoming satellite missions transforming agriculture: from high-resolution imagery to advanced sensors, learn how cutting-edge Earth observation technologies are unlocking new possibilities for precision farming, sustainable resource management, and climate resilience. This session inspires innovations in the agricultural sector by space technology.
 

Session Spotlight: Building Data Spaces for Agriculture

The European Commission is buidling the single market for data and promotes the set-up of common european data spaces. These federated data spaces are reshaping how information is shared and utilised. This session dives into the architecture and applications of these systems, enabling seamless integration and collaboration across the agricultural ecosystem. Gain insights into how federated systems ensure secure, efficient, and interoperable data exchange to innovate on effectiveness, transparancy and environmental performance.
 

Session Spotlight: Data Governacne - Building Trust in Agricultural Data

Data governance is the backbone of a secure and efficient data ecosystem. The European Data Act offers a new framework for data governance. The Data Act also encourages sectors to organise themselves beyond the regulation. In agriculture, this is shaped through the Code of Conduct for datasharing. Explore how governance frameworks can foster trust and collaboration among stakeholders in the agriculture sector, with examples from the Netherlands and Europe.
 

Session Spotlight: Tracing the Source – Data Provenance in Earth Observation

The growing use and dependency on EO data in monitoring and control put new demands on the quality assurance of EO data and the transformative processes towards applications and users. Understanding the origins and lifecycle of Earth observation data is critical for transparency and reliability. This session examines initiatives, tools and techniques for tracking data provenance, ensuring accuracy, and maintaining the integrity of satellite data as it integrates into agricultural performance monitoring and control.
 

Session Spotlight: AI for Satellite Data Analysis

The analyses of satellite data has been boosted by Artificial intelligence, which is revolutionising satellite data processing, turning complex datasets into actionable insights. This session explores how AI-powered tools can enhance agricultural productivity, optimise resource management, and monitor environmental changes with unprecedented precision. And are you prepared for the AI Act?
 

Session Spotlight: The Area Monitoring System and the CAP

The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) has changed from a compliance based framework into a performance framework: income support and other subsidies support sustainable farming practices. The Copernicus programme has boosted the use of EO in monitoring and control for the CAP, called the Area Monitoring System (AMS), implemented by every member state in the EU. This session discusses advancements, innovation projects, initatives and trends, showcasing how satellite data ensures compliance, transparency, and efficiency in agricultural policy implementation at paying agencies.
 

Session Spotlight: Satellite Data for Soil Health

Healthy soils are the foundation of regenerative agriculture. Learn how satellite technology is being leveraged to monitor soil conditions and promote better soil management practices. This session highlights the role of Earth observation in nurturing fertile and resilient landscapes, monitoring of carbon stocks and variable rate applications for smart farming applications. The session includes the presentation of innovative soil sampling and scanning technologies to make the analysis and mapping of soil properties more effective and affordable.
 

Session Spotlight: Regenerative Agriculture and Space Technology

Regenerative agriculture seeks to restore ecosystems and combat climate change, “working with nature – instead of fighting nature”. Data is an important enabler to respond to specific needs of soils and plants. Discover how satellite data is supporting this movement by providing insights into carbon sequestration, biodiversity, and sustainable land management practices, all from a space-based perspective.
 

Session Spotlight: CSRD – Sustainability Reporting Meets Space Data

With the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), organizations face new challenges in sustainability accountability. This session explores how satellite data can be integrated into reporting frameworks, providing reliable, scalable, and verifiable metrics for environmental impact assessments.
 

Session Spotlight: Automation and Autonomous Machinery

Automation is transforming agriculture, with autonomous machinery leading the way in efficiency and precision. This session examines how satellite data enables these technologies, from automated planting to precision harvesting, fostering smarter and more sustainable farming practices.

Session Spotlight: Technology Adoption and Digital Literacy of Farmers

The success of agricultural innovations depends on farmer engagement and understanding. This session focuses on bridging the digital divide, exploring strategies to enhance technology adoption and digital literacy among farmers, ensuring they can fully harness the potential of satellite data and modern tools.
 

Session Spotlight: Building a Digital Alliance in Agriculture

Collaboration is key to driving innovation in the agricultural sector. This session explores the creation of a digital alliance, bringing together stakeholders to foster shared standards, interoperability, and collective advancements in technology, ensuring a cohesive and impactful agricultural data ecosystem.
