Abstract:
As part of its ongoing move to simplify and modernise the EU’s Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), the European Commission has adopted new rules that allow a range of modern technologies to be used in the check systems for area-based CAP payments. This includes the possibility to use geotagged photos to support and complement checks when the latter do not lead to conclusive results and additionally to help avoid wasting time and money on the spot checks. They can also be used as ground truth information provided by farmers or other stakeholders. A system that can support the farmer in collecting the needed geotagged photos is presented here. The system will help with the automation and acceleration of a heavily manual process by facilitating the interaction between the farmers and the relevant authorities.
