- Abstract
Small Island Developing States (SIDS) are particularly susceptible to the detrimental effects of Climate Change. Issues such as food security have been given increased attention over the last few years and this has sped up with the transportation and logistical issues faced during the COVID pandemic. Farmers must now increase yield to increase food security while battling the effects of climate change. Technologies such as Artificial Intelligence can assist but the data needed to train these algorithms are not available for SIDS and so development in these areas are limited. We received a National Geographic Grant to investigate the application of Artificial Intelligence to Precision Agriculture in SIDS and one of the required steps was the collection of data for training Machine Learning algorithms. This required collection of data (using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles or Drones), processing of the data, labelling of the data and then development of suitable algorithms for problems such as Weed Detection, Water Stress detection and other potential problems. We are making this dataset available to the public on an Open Data platform that we developed and which is located at data.tt. This paper describes the data that is being shared, how it can be accessed and examples of how it can be used.
