Mimos, Oracle team up on sensor grid for agriculture industry

Mimos Bhd and Oracle Corporation Malaysia are collaborating to develop and deploy a sensor grid pilot project for the agriculture industry under KnowledgeGRID Malaysia, a Mimos initiative. The sensor-based grid technology is currently in the initial testing phase and is scheduled to run its beta testing by the second quarter of this year.

The project aimed to develop applications for the preventive and proactive management in agriculture, including real-time crop monitoring, analysis, and proactive and preventive care solutions for crops. Crop data gathered using Mimos’ wireless precision sensors would be used to measure the soil nutrients in a certain plot of land. The data would be stored using Oracle’s database technology. Analysis of the data could then be used to measure the exact amount of fertiliser needed, the types of crops suitable for certain plots of land and so forth.
