AgrodatAi
Industry: Agrotech
Location: Colombia
The challenge
Many different stakeholders participate in Colombia's agricultural value chains and face daily decisions about what and when to produce, which crops to grow, which technology to use, where and when to sell, how to mitigate and transfer risks, whom to finance, and what the risks are. However, to answer these questions, these stakeholders lack access to information sources that allow them to make the best decision; even when they can consult them, these sources do not connect all the variables that influence outcomes or are not delivered in time. To address this challenge, Servinformación and SFA CEBAR conceived AgrodatAi as a platform that, through interaction between users and various information sources, enables stakeholders across agricultural value chains to make decisions about supply, demand, prices, weather, markets, harvest calendars, and credit potential through data, indicators, forecasts, risk models, and alerts that help improve competitiveness and reduce production, financial, and market risks.
The solution
Guided by our core focus, AgrodatAi is designed with different components that make it the best solution for the agricultural sector. Each component presents different technology challenges that we tackle and solve with cloud-based technologies such as Google Maps, Google Earth Engine, Google Cloud, DialogFlow, Carto, and Twilio, delivering an agile response to each user need.
One of the major components that enables us to provide near-real-time information is our Data Lake, fed by authorized and internal databases that undergo various ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) processes to deliver a reliable product that scales over time.
