Gruppo SIGLA partecipates in the DRUPE Project
Gruppo SIGLA, a company of the Relatech group, partecipates in DRUPE (Decision support system based on in-situ and aeRial spectroscopy and distributed network of heterogeneous sensors for the Production of olives), a project co-financed by the European Union - European Regional Development Fund POR FESR Liguria 2021-2027, Action 1.1.1, which aims to introduce Industry 4.0 technologies and methods in the operational context of an olive grove.
The project provides the involvement of a group of companies which includes, in addition to Gruppo SIGLA, SITEM in the role of coordinator, CerSAA, FlairBit , BEES, Genoa Instruments, Globi Hi-Tech with the support of the CNR Genoa Area. The scientific direction is entrusted to Dr. Federico Tinivella (CerSAA).
DRUPE aims to meet the needs outlined in the Liguria Region's Olive and Olive Oil Sector Plan. Its main objective is to create a useful tool to optimise resources for a sustainable future olive-growing sector that is resilient to current climate changes, using machine learning algorithms, artificial intelligence and predictive analysis.
Within the project, Gruppo SIGLA will collaborate on the definition of services for users and will design a Data Analytics Engine for the analysis of plant stress conditions and identification of correlations between data coming from different sensory sources, as well as playing a fundamental role in promotion towards stakeholders.
