Abstract

The use of data from all types of sensors, both in-situ and remote,
together with positioning via GPS/GNSS, offers the possibility of
generating useful recommendations for farmers to make informed
decisions about what actions to carry out in their plots. The application
of optimal doses at the right time and in the right place allows
a reduction of time, costs and impact on the environment, as well as
an increase in yields.
This article shows the importance of the use of the GPS/GNSS systems
in the field of precision agriculture and describes the decision support
system fed by the different sources of information available, paying
special attention to the constellation Sentinel-2 of the European program
Copernicus.
