Fiber Optic Sensing in Precision Agriculture

This hands-on training workshop, provided by FORTH, offers participants practical experience in the use of optical fiber sensors for modern agricultural applications. The event covers key techniques in real-time soil assessment, moisture and nutrient monitoring, and crop health diagnostics using fiber optic technologies. Participants will also explore the integration of optical sensors with drone-based systems for precision agriculture, enabling efficient monitoring of large fields and remote data collection. Through guided experiments and field demonstrations, attendees will gain valuable insights into deploying fiber optic sensing solutions to enhance agricultural productivity and sustainability.
