Development and Application of Big Data Platform for “Bohai granary”

In order to effectively solve series of problems which affect grain production in implementation of the “Bohai granary” project, such as the wide varieties of factors (including soil fertility, soil salinity, pH, underground water level, water salinity, crop varieties and management etc.), the huge spatial and temporal variability, the difficulty of real-time information collection, the complexity of analysis and processing etc., a “Bohai granary” big data platform is developed. With the invention of “Shennong IOAT” series of sensing equipment, the acquisition of multi-site real-time synchronization field information is achieved. And by combining a variety of data collection methods, the collection of factors comprehensively affecting the grain production has been realized. Based on the Hadoop big data platform, it becomes a reality to store, analyze and apply the collected data efficiently. Through the big data platform, the precise management of grain production, the automatic warning of soil moisture content, the disaster and typical insect damage in crop growth, and the automatic control of typical link production are all achieved.
