Abstract

Precision agriculture is one of the global agricultural industry's new orientations. According to surveys, food demand is increasing significantly while production remains stagnant at present levels, making a food shortage more likely in the near future. The purpose of this article is to propose a solution for developing and implementing a monitoring platform for precision agriculture. The goal is to enhance product quality and boost productivity by implementing modern 5G technologies and autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). The platform will employ specialized high-precision WSN (Wireless Sensor Network) sensors that will connect with the Cloud platform through a 6LoWPAN end -to-end protocol. Analyses have also been performed on the processing of the data and images collected with WSN and UAV, employing specialized classification algorithms to determine the risk of disease incidence, such as Random Forest and SVM (Support Vector Machine).
