ENHANCING GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSION ESTIMATES FOR STUBBLE BURNING AREAS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17805926 titled 'ENHANCING GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSION ESTIMATES FOR STUBBLE BURNING AREAS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method, computer system, and computer program product for improving environmental impact estimations in agricultural areas. The invention involves obtaining data related to an agricultural area, deriving features from the data, identifying stubble burning areas based on these features, and determining the environmental impact of each identified stubble burning area.

• Obtaining data pertaining to an agricultural area
• Deriving one or more features from the agricultural data
• Identifying stubble burning areas within the agricultural areas based on the derived features
• Determining the environmental impact of each identified stubble burning area

Potential applications of this technology:

• Environmental monitoring and assessment in agricultural areas
• Identifying and addressing the impact of stubble burning on the environment
• Supporting decision-making processes for sustainable agricultural practices

Problems solved by this technology:

• Lack of accurate and efficient methods for estimating the environmental impact of stubble burning in agricultural areas
• Difficulty in identifying specific areas where stubble burning occurs
• Inadequate data for assessing the overall environmental impact of agricultural practices

Benefits of this technology:

• Improved accuracy and efficiency in estimating environmental impact
• Enhanced ability to identify and address the specific areas where stubble burning occurs
• Better understanding of the overall environmental impact of agricultural practices
• Support for sustainable and environmentally-friendly agricultural practices
