Creation of an automated system for monitoring the development, health, and greening of nursery seedlings Source of funding Rural Support Service Project Project leader Vitālijs Osadčuks Duration 2023-2025 Budget 464360 Project description The project aims to develop a new technology for the global market, which includes hardware design and development, as well as sensor data processing and analysis software. The innovation will enable tree nursery nurseries to obtain timely data (through monitoring) on the health status of seedlings, the presence of weeds and the relative humidity of the soil. The analysis results will be transferred to the GIS system for spatial representation and planning of future greenhouse work. The newly created technology will not only increase the quality of nurseries and planting materials, but also increase human resource productivity, which directly corresponds to the strategic goal of the Latvian forest sector – to double the added value per workplace by 2030.
