Track: Agriculture
Authors: Mark Trotter, Seth Gorrie

The University of New England (UNE) SMART farm is a 728ha commercial farm located in Australia. The SMART farm provides innovators a space to demonstrate technology. From an extensive soil sensor network and live tracking of cattle. Esri Australia partnered with UNE to deliver a real-time operations dashboard using the GeoEvent Processor Extension with ArcGIS for Server. This demonstrates how Esri technology can provide agriculture with live feedback on farm operations from sensor network data.
