South Australian company to launch satellite vineyard scan

Wine Australia, one of the country’s biggest rural R&D organisations, is to use satellite data and geospatial analysis systems to create a “row-by-row” national census of vineyards across 65 wine regions.

The project will use high-resolution satellite images and artificial intelligence software developed by South Australian company Consilium Technology to create a detailed national vineyard map by mid-2019.

The Geospatial Artificial Intelligence for Agriculture (GAIA) software has been tested in Tasmania and in the Margaret River wine region of Western Australia.
