Platform

From grazing to fire prevention, habitat analysis and decision-making

See which plots each flock keeps grazed, cross-referenced with the burnt-area history. GPS tracks over natural habitats and land use, to see where and how much the flock grazes. Reports, alerts and an agent that answers with your flocks' data.

Analysed layers

  1. Terrain Relief and contour lines of the area where the flock grazes.
  2. GPS points Each collar's position through the day, with history and map playback.
  3. Routes Each flock's daily route, with grazing distances and times.
  4. Climate Temperature and rainfall over the period, read alongside grazing.
  5. COS and ISIP Land use and land cover crossed with grazing in the ISIP x COS matrix.
  6. Habitat Patches of natural habitats the flock moves through.
  7. Common land Boundaries of the community-owned land (baldios) where flocks graze.
  8. Burnt areas Wildfire history overlaid on the routes.

How it works

From the flock in the field to automated analysis, in six steps.

  1. Sheep wearing a GPS collar

    Collared flock

    Each animal wears a GPS collar. The platform connects to Digitanimal and Domodis collars and also accepts positions imported from CSV.

  2. Antenna receiving GPS fixes and sending them to the platform screen

    The platform collects all the data

    Positions reach the same server and draw each flock's tracks on the map.

  3. Three stacked map layers: land use, burnt area and habitats

    We add the other analysis layers

    Land cover (COS), burnt areas and historical data crossed with grazing.

  4. PDF report with a bar chart and a mapPDF

    Complete reports

    Areas, distances and intensity per plot, in a PDF ready to share.

  5. Question to the agent and an answer with a chart

    Chat with the agent

    Plain-language questions about your flocks, answered with the platform's data.

  6. Clock triggering a flow of linked nodes

    Analysis automation with agents

    Analyses and alerts that run on their own, as often as you choose.
