Abstract/Summary

With a significant growth in the agricultural technology industry a vast amount of agricultural data is now being collected on farms throughout the world. Farmers aim to utilise these technologies to regularly record and manage the variation of crops and soils within their fields, to reduce inputs, increase yields and enhance environmental sustainability. In this paper we aim to highlight the variety of different data types and methodological processes involved in modern precision farming and explore how potentially interconnected these systems are with the archaeological community
