What this practice does

Farmer registration, drone and satellite farm mapping, and subsidy-distribution platforms.

What we deliver

Five things we build and run.

  1. 01Farmer registration and KYC with GPS farm boundaries
  2. 02Drone and satellite farm mapping
  3. 03E-voucher and input-distribution platforms
  4. 04Real-time dashboards for ministries and lenders
  5. 05Thematic analysis: crop verification, irrigation, farmer–herder conflict risk
The platform

Farms, farmers and cultivation on one map.

How we deliver

Design, build, run, hand over.

The four nodes in the Geomatix mark are the four stages of every engagement. The last one is the point: your team runs the system without us.

  1. Node 1

    Design

    We design for the conditions our clients actually work in, including limited connectivity and large field teams.

  2. Node 2

    Build

    Offline-first mobile capture, intranet processing for low-connectivity sites, and devices field teams actually use.

  3. Node 3

    Run

    We operate and maintain the systems we build, with a help desk and support tickets tracked to resolution.

  4. Node 4

    Hand over

    Training for the client’s staff, then a full handover of source code, applications, documentation and system credentials.

Tools we use when they fit

We pick the tool for the problem and the skills your team already has. These used to be separate service pages; they are now how this practice delivers.

  • AGIX
  • PostgreSQL and PostGIS
  • Drones and GPS
  • Satellite imagery
  • Offline Android apps
  • RFID integration
  • Real-time dashboards
