COMPOLIVE
The combination of climate change, the need to transition to green development methods, and the rapid advancements in space technology for earth observation using modern Machine Learning techniques are driving the development of innovative applications in organic waste utilization and the circular economy. The CompOlive project, operating within the framework of RIS3Crete and the Operational Program “Crete” 2014-2020, aims to develop an innovative approach to produce soil conditioner by composting agricultural residues from olive production in the Crete region. As part of the project, a specialized online information platform has been developed, featuring an interactive map that enables the public to utilize advanced earth observation methods to estimate the available biomass of their olive groves and request the On-field shredding and composting service
GEOSYSTEMS HELLAS (GSH) contributed to the project through identifying and documenting the pilot study area for field sampling, developing a WebGIS prototype application for the pilot study area, and creating an olive tree biomass estimation algorithm using satellite data and machine learning techniques. Moreover, GSH developed the website to host the CompOlive project and the corresponding WebGIS, designed a booking and payment registration system for the WebGIS online platform, and established an information management system for reservations.
The CompOlive Project is finished
