Reengineering of processes and applications in agricultural investigations
Project duration: 5 months
Brief description
The application systems of the subsidiary of a food company, which carries out soil analyses of cultivated areas for farmers, analyses of fertilizers, virus and bacteria analyses, will be reengineered and successively integrated into the web-based IT landscape of the parent company. These conversions are necessary in order to be able to meet the requirements arising within the framework of the digitalisation of agriculture (precision farming).
Supplement
The client systems currently in use were primarily developed using the Delphi development environment, the Pascal programming language and MS Access as a database. They are transferred to a central Oracle database and converted to Java. In addition, the analyses will in future be commissioned via a portal in which farmers and winegrowers can enter their sample data and retrieve the analysis results.
Subject description
The company receives soil samples from its customers; samples of organic fertilizers, seedlings, etc., which are prepared and analysed in a Group laboratory. The results of the laboratory analyses are processed by the company's own programmes and reports and recommendations, e.g. fertiliser recommendations and nutrient comparisons are prepared for farmers. The nutrient balance, also known as nutrient comparison, is the comparison of nutrient supply and removal on a farm's agricultural land (see e.g. https://www.lfl.bayern.de/naehrstoffbilanz). The application systems support both the commissioning process and the sample run and transmission of the results. The programmes used will be renewed to enable more efficient sampling and geodata integration procedures.
