Abstract
Imagery Technology Meets Vineyard Management
Track: Agriculture
Author(s): Jamie Carothers
Wine grape growers are using the VESTRA multispectral imagery product, joining it with their GIS maps and databases to aid growing a premium product consistently year after year. VESTRA Resources will share information about wine grape growers successfully integrating GIS, GPS, and remote sensing, like Robert Mondavi Winery, Kendall-Jackson, and The Hess Collection. What have these growers identified as the benefits, the challenges, and some solutions that increase knowledge about the geography of premium wine grapes? What are the options for international acquisition of information in this global business? Geography plays a part in marketing this product in the form of appellations or American viticultural areas. What is the future of GIS in this portion of the wine business?
