Description

Smart Farm Management System {SYSTEM FOR MANAGING SMART FARM}

The present invention relates to a smart farm management system, and more particularly, to a system for managing farmhouses and cattle farms based on IoT, GIS, and GPS.

Existing farm and livestock management systems have been conducted mainly in office spaces, not in the field, and in most cases, farms that do not have a management system are documented and managed individually.

In addition, existing management systems applied in similar fields have many biased systems centered on livestock or facilities, and this also has a disadvantage in that they are monitored and managed in the field in an office-centered manner. Accordingly, there is a need for a system that manages various information on farmhouses without space limitations centered on the site rather than the office space.

Currently, in the case of farmers with management systems, it is difficult to have a systemized system because they are poorly managed due to lack of understanding and lack of management of the owner's system, or are recorded and kept as document-oriented documents or managed only by using personal computers. .

In addition, it is difficult for farmers to have exact matching information or errors in data as work progresses centered on the site, and when farmhouses are wide, there are many difficulties in determining the exact location and access road, and information on various facilities It is difficult to manage the vast farmhouse operation information.
