**3.3 Satellite technology**

Satellite technologies, also defined as satellite-based remote sensing, have been utilizing images from space to analyze vegetation indices and identify variations across different areas of the farm. Satellite technologies provide information regarding soil type and condition, crop health, and hydrologic and climatic parameters, which are important for PA (e.g., soil organic carbon, soil moisture, NDVI, leaf area index (LAI), groundwater, and rainfall).
