Systems and methods for ecosystem credit recommendations
Systems, methods, and computer program products for recommending farming practices based on modelled outcomes are provided. In various embodiments, field data comprising geospatial boundaries of one or more field are received. Management event data comprising one or more management events within the one or more fields is received. For each management event, a management event boundary defining geospatial boundaries is received, and one or more management zones is determined based on the management event boundaries. The determination of one or more management zones comprises sequentially intersecting a geospatial boundary. Each sequential intersection operation creating two branches, one with the intersection of the geometries and one with the difference. This process is repeated for all management event boundaries occurring in a geospatial boundary defining a contiguous region, wherein each individual management zone contains a unique set of farming practices relative to any other management zone within the contiguous region.
1. A method comprising:
determining, by a processing unit, an indication of a geographic region, wherein the indication of a geographic region is a shape drawn on a map presented within a GUI of a user device;
receiving, by a processing unit, field data comprising geospatial boundaries of one or more fields within the geographic region;
receiving, by a processing unit, management event data comprising one or more management events located within the one or more fields;
receiving, by a processing unit, for each management event, a management event boundary defining geospatial boundaries corresponding to at least a portion of the one or more fields; and
determining, by a processing unit, one or more management zones based on the management event boundaries, wherein determining one or more management zones based on the management event boundaries comprises:
sequentially intersecting, by a processing unit, a geospatial boundary defining a contiguous region wherein management zones are being determined with each management event boundary occurring within that contiguous region, wherein each of the sequential intersection operations creates two branches: one with the intersection of the geometries and one with the difference, wherein this process is repeated for all management event boundaries that occurred in the geospatial boundary defining the contiguous region, wherein a final set of leaf nodes in this branching process define the geospatial extent of the set of management zones within the contiguous region, wherein each management zone is non-overlapping and each individual management zone contains a unique set of farming practices relative to any other management zone within the contiguous region.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining that one or more farming practice is missing or non-compliant;
accessing remote sensing data for a field comprising the location; and
applying one or more machine learning algorithm to the remote sensing data for the field comprising the location to generate an estimate of the one or more missing or non-compliant farming practice.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining that one or more farming practice is missing or non-compliant;
accessing remote sensing data for a field comprising the location; and
applying one or more machine learning algorithm to the remote sensing data for the field comprising the location to generate an estimate of the one or more missing or non-compliant farming practice.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining that one or more farming practice of the field is missing or non-compliant;
accessing historical farm practices of a plurality of fields within the same geographic regions as the field; and
appending the most frequent value for the missing or non-compliant farming practice based on the historical farm practices data for the geographic region to the data record for the field.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein receiving field data comprising geospatial boundaries of one or more fields comprises applying one or more computer vision method or machine learning algorithms to remote sensing data to generate one or more polygons geospatial boundaries of one or more fields.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
accessing a field boundary for each of the one or more fields, wherein the accessed field boundary is a proposed field boundary,
reading one or more boundary validation criteria,
validating the proposed field boundary against the one or more boundary validation criteria, and
generating a revised boundary based on the proposed field boundary and the validation criteria.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining that one or more farming practice is missing or non-compliant;
accessing remote sensing data for a field comprising the location; and
applying one or more machine learning algorithm to the remote sensing data for the field comprising the location to generate an estimate of the one or more missing or non-compliant farming practice.
8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining one or more farming practice is missing or non-compliant;
accessing remote sensing data comprising a plurality of fields within the same geographic regions as the field comprising the location; and
applying a machine learning model to the remote sensing data of the plurality of fields to generate an estimate of the frequency of the missing or non-compliant farming practices within the geographic region comprising the field.
9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining one or more farming practice of the field is missing or non-compliant;
accessing historical farm practices of a plurality of fields within the same geographic regions as the field; and
appending the most frequent value for the missing or non-compliant farming practice based on the historical farm practices data for the geographic region to the data record for the field.
