Riscognition is a provider of Analysis Ready Location Information. We help developers adding the rich content of satellite Earth Observations to their applications for visualisation or analysis. Information delivery  through standard APIs support an easy data integration in software applications and reduces the data management burden. We help users generate new location-insight.

Elmibit d.o.o. found it easy to integrate EO data in its eVineyard web application for vineyard managers, eVineyard, thanks to Riscognition: »Riscognition provided an easy-to-use API for fetching some basic EO data such as minimal, maximal and mean NDVI on the fields, so we can now allow our customers to visualize EO data on the same graphs as their in-situ data collected on the field« mentions Matic Serc from Elmibit d.o.o., adding that they are »looking forward to some additional indices we defined together with the Riscognition team in the process« to work on beyond the e-shape project scope work.

The main challenge was the service backend development, that is delivering automatically updated information about the vegetation status as soon as a new Sentinel-2 acquisition becomes available.

eVineyard service provided by Elmibit is now capable of displaying vineyard block-specific EO-derived data in it’s interface that allows for weighting, combination of data and further alerting when thresholds are reached, allowing eVineyard users to set up alerts in case of out-of-range values in particular blocks which may be caused by vineyard issues such as high number of dead vines, too low or too high vigour of the vines, and similar.
