Carbon Farming Carbon Farming means all activities agriculture can undertake for sustainable reduction and sequestration of CO2 from the atmosphere. One challenge in Carbon Farming is to independently assess and verify the actions taken as well as their impact on carbon sequestration. Vista offers an EO-based MRV-Tool to monitor, report and [...]

Climate Change Impact As the Earth's climate continues to undergo significant shifts, understanding the impacts of climate change is paramount for informed decision-making and effective adaptation strategies. Agriculture is intricately linked to climate, relying on predictable weather patterns, suitable temperatures, and adequate water availability for successful crop growth and yields feeding the [...]

Water Availability Water availability is a fundamental determinant of agricultural productivity and food security worldwide. However, the reliable supply of water for agriculture is increasingly threatened by climate change, population growth, urbanization, and competing demands from other sectors. In agricultural systems, water is essential for germination, growth, and maturation of crops, as well [...]

Land Use Change Observation of land use change and change detection for certification of sustainable plantings can be analysed using remote sensing data. Vista’s big data processing chains for remote sensing data can identify land use: e.g.cropland, settlements, wetlands, forests, grassland land use dynamics over different years seasonal dynamics [...]

Agri-PV Agri-PV (also known as agrophotovoltaics , agrivoltaics, agrisolar, solar sharing or dual-use solar) is the simultaneous use of land for both farming and solar power (PV) electricity production. Consequently, the PV modules are arranged in a way that allows for access to the farmland with agricultural machinery. A key question for farmers [...]
