Status and Prospects of Google Earth Engine in Agricultural Management Research
Agricultural cultivation,as a strategic industry in China's national economy,plays a pivotal role in grain production and sustainable development goals.It serves as the"cornerstone"of the entire economic system.Agricultural management can greatly benefit from modern technologies such as remote sensing,allowing collection of growing status information of large-area crops from high-frequency sensors.To store,organize,and process large area and long time series remote sensing data in agricultural management,as well as to save user's computing resources and enhance the timeliness and universality,remote sensing cloud platforms play a crucial role.Google Earth Engine(GEE),as an open-source intelligent cloud platform integrating data acquisition,computation,model establishment,precision verification,and visual analysis in geographic spatial analysis,has advantages including long-term data archiving,stable operation,low-cost computation,and convenient online programming.It significantly expands the research in the agricultural field,bringing new opportunities to the development of precision agriculture.From the perspective of GEE platform,agricultural application data,crop planting support management,and farmland management tools,this article analyzes the latest research progress of agricultural application on GEE platform.The article takes"platform-data-agricultural management-tool"as the structural frame,and the platform function echoes the agricultural management field in terms of content.It emphasizes that multi-source synergistic effective data can support the decision-making of agricultural monitoring and management,efficient and easily scalable farmland planting management and crop growth monitoring tools can help improve agricultural production efficiency,and agricultural data information and agricultural management tools can jointly promote sustainable agricultural development in the global context.This article analyzes and summarizes the current research status of GEE in agricultural application data support,agricultural monitoring management,and farmland management tools,and highlights the innovative changes that the GEE cloud platform brings to agricultural management by comparisons with geospatial data processing using traditional desktop platforms.The potential of GEE in the field of fragmented farmland and pest monitoring is highlighted,and the research direction of GEE in supporting sustainable agricultural development in the global context was discussed.With the effective improvement of GEE in data quality,data processing function,and agricultural parameter information utilization,the application prospects of GEE in agricultural management fields such as precision agriculture management,agricultural condition monitoring and forecasting,mobile intelligent agricultural decision support system development,and ecosystem management are forecasted.The objective of the article is to provide a reference for platform users and offer insights for the construction and application of cloud computing platforms in China's agricultural sectors.
