Williams - Case Study
CHALLENGE: REDUCING FIELD TESTING COSTS, INCREASE DATA USABILITY Field testing is required 6 times per year by law, in addition to one longer annual asset survey that can take two weeks in the field. To say that some parts of the NWP are hard to access is a gross understatement. Williams needed to reduce cathodic protection survey costs and associated downtime in hard to access field sites while ...

Understanding the role of soil testing in modern agriculture
A bit of a background The increase of food production across the years has been mainly due to higher yields resulting from greater inputs like fertilizers, water, pesticides, and other technologies of the “green revolution”. But even if those practices led to enormous gains in food and helped improve food security, they also had greater negative impacts on the environment, putting the ...

Water trends in optimization for 2023: the role of artificial intelligence
Water is essential for life on Earth, but it is a finite resource. The data compiled in reports by organizations such as the UN, UNICEF, and the FAO point to overexploitation of water as the main cause of scarcity, with between 43% and 50% of the world’s population not having access to drinking water. Against this background, optimizing water management is a major, highly necessary ...

Large-scale contaminated soil investigations using Environmental Data Management Software
The Problem - Data Management Challenges Large-scale contaminated soil investigations generate hundreds, often thousands, of samples. Soil samples are collected from multiple locations, at varying depths, over many days, and by different people. Each sample is then tested for a suite of parameters and compared to regulatory guidelines to determine whether it is contaminated. This generates a ...

Applicability Assessment of Coherent Doppler Wind LiDAR for Monitoring during Dusty Weather at the Northern Edge of the Tibetan Plateau
Abstract: Wind profile light detection and ranging (LiDAR) is an important tool for observing features within the atmospheric boundary layer. Observations of the wind field and boundary layer height from coherent Doppler wind LiDARs (CDWLs) under sandy and dusty weather conditions were evaluated using observations from two CDWLs and one GTS radio sounding located at the northern edge of the ...

Using precision data to optimize results
Every grower and agronomist will tell you that growing a successful crop is not easy. This is due to many factors outside of their control that ultimately determine the outcome of the season, such as weather and the rise of input costs, that can decide a season but that cannot be influenced. Regardless of this, the same four basic process underpin every growing season: Planning In-season ...
