The Mappyist Hour

From aquatic biology to mapping raspberry yields, guest Anna Miller joins Teeand Silas to explore the burgeoning world of agricultural GIS. The trio discusses how farmers are (and aren't) using drone data, the challenges of predicting crop yields from space, and why "precision agriculture" is more than just a buzzword.
