LEVERAGING MULTIMODAL DATA FOR GEOSPATIOTEMPORAL ANALYTICS

Abstract Details

2024, Master of Sciences, Case Western Reserve University, Materials Science and Engineering.
Advanced analytics of diverse geospatial data streams can provide invaluable insights into complex agricultural and environmental systems. This work pioneers an integrated spatiotemporal analysis approach synthesizing satellite imagery, digital soil mapping, hydrological measurements, elevation, and historical crop data. The overarching objective of this work is to quantify relationships between crop growth dynamics, soil properties, nutrient distribution, water quality, and land use patterns. The methodology employs a case study focused on major agricultural regions to show the potential of big data analytic techniques. Custom applications and tools built on distributed computing infrastructure enable the assimilating and processing of massive heterogeneous datasets. The results unveil intricate connections between vegetation indices, soil nutrients, crop types, and nutrient transport, offering strategic perspectives to enhance productivity while minimizing environmental impacts. The multi-faceted understanding achieved fills critical knowledge gaps regarding interactions within agroecosystems. While moderate-resolution regional data provided informative baseline insights, higher spatiotemporal resolution and expanded geographic scope would further strengthen the analysis. Overall, this work underscores the immense potential of data science, geospatiotemporal analytics, and systems thinking to address pressing crop, land, nutrient, water, and soil challenges. The integrated approach provides a powerful paradigm for leveraging emerging data streams toward creating a digital agriculture ecosystem.
