BACCHUS

METHODOLOGICAL APPROACH FOR VINEYARD INVENTORY AND MANAGEMENT

2002-2005

Research and Technological Development Project, co-funded by the European Commission with the contract number EVG1-CT-2002-00075, under the 5th Framework Program, sub-program "Energy, Environment and Sustainable Development".

The "Bacchus" project concerned the improvement of the methodologies available for the localization and characterization of the vineyards, through high-resolution remote sensing data and spatial analysis techniques. The aim of the project was to provide Consortia, farmers and wine producers with an integrated and complete system to meet their information needs on vineyard conditions, mainly based on the use of satellite and aerial images, GIS (Information Systems Geographic) and modern software solutions.
