INTEGRATION OF REMOTE SENSING DATA WITH GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM (GIS): ...ijmpict
Remote Sensing and Geographic information System together comprise of Geographic Information Science (GIScience) which is a core research field that tries to emphasis on advanced geographic concepts in Geographic Information System and examines the impact of GIS on individuals and society as a whole and re-examines the themes with incorporation of most recent cognitive and Information Science. The Geographic Information System can be defined as a Computer based system and a tool, both hardware,
software and procedures, which manages geospatial data, solves spatial problems, and supports collection,
storage, transformation, analyzing, retrieving and display of data in a well desired manner. The integration
of GIS and Remote Sensing is a field of research and several implementations have been developed to gain
the maximum throughput out of these collective fields as these techniques have their own data analysis and
data representation methods. The application domain of remote sensing is from a base layer for GIS to the
development of thematic datasets, obtaining and extracting data from imagery and generation of unique
spatial datasets. In my paper I have focused on the integration of both the fields along with its usage in
Analysis and Modelling and also some models of error sources due to the integration of interface of the two
techniques. The paper also describes some error sources while integration as GIS and remote sensing both
are subject to errors and uncertainty. The paper has discussed some Change Detection Techniques used in
the modern sciences with their comparison.
Modelling the Monthly Vulnerability of Land Degradation by Using the Method o...IJAEMSJORNAL
Land degradation being an aspect of desertification is one of the challenging environmental problems which depends on the process of a mathematical modelling. To tackle this formidable environmental science problem, we have developed a sound database system that is driven by a computationally efficient numerical scheme to clearly show that the loss of land’s biological and economic productivityand complexity as defined by UNCCD [1] is more vulnerable to depletion ranging from the average value vulnerability of depletion of 7.95 approximately to 0.6 approximately. As a response to decreasing the natural growth rate of land use from0.6 to 0.006 provided the initial consumption units of land use ranges from its value of 100 to 1500. On the basis of this quantification, when the notion of the human population modelling is considered, the results of this present analysis clearly show that the smaller the initial consumption of land use, the more vulnerable land degradation can occur whereas the bigger the initial consumption of land use is associated with a weak vulnerability to degradation which is clearly smaller than the average vulnerability to depletion. These detailed results that we have obtained showed clear sustainable development implication which has not been seen elsewhere; these are carefully presented and discussed quantitatively

Pesticide recommendation system for cotton crop diseases due to the climatic ...IJMREMJournal
Data mining is a process of extracting knowledge from a vast database using tools and techniques. Data
mining plays an important role in decision making on issues related to many real-time problems such as
business, education, agriculture etc. Data mining in agriculture helps the farmers to decide on crop yield ratio,
water resource management, pesticides management and fertilizer management. Nowadays, climatic change is
one of the challenging problems in agriculture which has a greater impact on productivity. Many
researchers have contributed in the field of agriculture data mining i) To predict crop productivity, ii) water
management, iii) air pollution using the naïve bias and decision tree algorithms. The Proposed work is to
predict the diseases due to Climatic changes and recommended pesticide for the disease. Decision tree
algorithm is used to develop a recommendation system which helps to the farmer in the usage of pesticide for
the incidence of crop diseases.
Climate services involve the timely production, translation, and delivery of useful climate data, information
and knowledge for societal decision making. In order to create climate services for farmers that are truly
integrated with user-centric design into the development process in an African context, the study has
finished an important and crucial step by conducting a literature review and designing a prototype for the
application. The goal of this study was to create climate services for farmers in an African context that are
genuinely integrated with user-centric design. This led to the co-design and development and integration
of a mobile application that provide climate and weather information as well as agricultural
information for the main crops such millet, maize and sorghum. The research applied using qualitative
research using interview with 3 farmers in the field using random sampling with the approach to inform
the study. A survey has been administered to find out how people understand climate services, Agro
meteorology and help enhance the mobile application’s user experience. A Results shows that farmers are
determined and ready to use and excited with the application. These innovations helped farmers to reduce
the cost, increase crop capacity and profit. A hypothesis was set that there is a need forintegrating AI into
a farmer’s application for making farming process more progressive and efficient farming and the
integration of Market Place (MP) for farmer’s application to market and sell their product the integration
of notification system that allows farmers to receive real-time data and IOT for real-time data. The data
collected and the survey results demonstrated that the research objectives were being met. The study aims
to develop the application that would be scalable, durable and fault tolerant for farmers to use the
application successfully.

Internet of things (IoT) smart technology enables new digital agriculture. Technology has become necessary to address today's challenges, and many
sectors are automating their processes with the newest technologies. By maximizing fertiliser use to boost plant efficiency, smart agriculture, which is based on IoT technology, intends to assist producers and farmers in
reducing waste while improving output. With IoT-based smart farming, farmers may better manage their animals, develop crops, save costs, and
conserve resources. Climate monitoring, drought detection, agriculture and production, pollution distribution, and many more applications rely on the weather forecast. The accuracy of the forecast is determined by prior
weather conditions across broad areas and over long periods. Machine learning algorithms can help us to build a model with proper accuracy. As a result, increasing the output on the limited acreage is important. IoT smart farming is a high-tech method that allows people to cultivate crops cleanly
and sustainably. In agriculture, it is the use of current information and
communication technologies.
On the performance analysis of rainfall prediction using mutual information...IJECEIAES
Monsoon rainfall prediction over a small geographic region is indeed a challenging task. This paper uses monthly means of climate variables, namely air temperature (AT), sea surface temperature (SST), and sea level pressure (SLP) over the globe, to predict monthly and seasonal summer monsoon rainfall over the state of Maharashtra, India. Mutual information correlates the temperature and pressure from a grid of 10 longitude X 10 latitude with Maharashtra’s monthly rainfall time series. Based on the correlations, selected features over the respective latitude and longitudes are given as inputs to an artificial neural network. It was observed that AT and SLP could predict monthly monsoon rainfall with excellent accuracy. The performance of the test dataset was evaluated through mean absolute error; root mean square error, correlation coefficient, Nash Sutcliffe model efficiency coefficient, and maximum rainfall prediction capability of the network. The individual climate variable model for AT performed better in all evaluation parameters except maximum rainfall capability, where the combined model 2 with AT, SLP and SST as predictors outperformed. The SLP-only model’s performance was comparable to the AT-only model. The combined model 1 with AT and SLP as predictors was found better than the combined model 2.
Survey of Diesease Prediction on Plants with the Helps of IOTrahulmonikasharma
overall climate change is a diversity in the long-term weather patterns that indicates the regions of the world. The term "weather" refers to the short-term (daily) changes in temperature, wind, and precipitation of a region.With the up-gradation in data mining and its applications, data mining is extensively used to make smarter decisions in farming.Agricultural forecasting is the science that employ knowledge in weather data relating to atmospheric environment observed by instruments on the ground and by remote sensing. Most of the data need to be processed for generating various decisions such as cropping and scheduling of irrigation.Various meteorological data like- temperature, humidity, leaf wetness duration (LWD) plays the vital roles in the growth of microorganism responsible for disease.Effective forecasting of such diseases on the basis of climate data can help the farmers to take timely actions to restrain the diseases. This can also justify the use of pesticides, which are one of the source behind land pollution. This paper illustrate the study which is useful for farmers in order to make decision if there is change occur in environment. In this study we are going to implement application which give the notification to farmers, if there is change in environment so based on that changes which disease should be affected to plant such type of notification will be generated on farmers mobile.Weather based forecasting system can be treated as a part of the Agricultural Decision Support System (ADSS) which is Knowledge Based System (KBS). IoT device that collects data regarding physical parameters, using a sophisticated microcontroller platform, from various types of sensors, through different modes of communication and then uploads the data to the Internet.
Crop yield prediction using data mining techniques.pdfssuserb22f5a
Agriculture is the main source of occupation which forms the backbone of our country. It involves the production of crops which may be either food crops or commercial crops. The productivity of crop yield is significantly influenced by various parameters such as rainfall, farm capacity, temperature, crop population density, humidity, irrigation, fertilizer application, solar radiation, type of soil, depth, tillage and soil organic matter. An accurate crop yield prediction support decision-makers in the agriculture sector to predict the yield effectively. Machine learning techniques and deep learning techniques play a significant role in the analysis of data for crop yield prediction. However, the selection of appropriate techniques from the pool of available techniques imposes challenges to the researchers concerning the chosen crop. In this paper, an analysis has been performed on various deep learning and machine learning techniques. To know the limitations of each technique, a comparative analysis is carried out in this paper. In addition to this, a suggestion is provided to further improve the performance of crop yield prediction.
An Efficient and Novel Crop Yield Prediction Method using Machine Learning Al...IIJSRJournal
The process of examining, filtering, and presenting data to obtain valuable information and make decisions is known as information analysis. Food resources are in high demand in countries like India, where they serve the population and help to secure the nation's security. Crop production is largely influenced by weather variations, soil quality, water availability, and fertilizer application, among other factors. The various types of soil play a significant effect in agricultural production. Recommending fertilizers to agriculturists may assist them in making better crop selection and maintenance decisions. Crop yield prediction can be done using a variety of studies using information and communication technology (ICT).

Selection of crop varieties and yield prediction based on phenotype applying ...IJECEIAES
In India, agriculture plays an important role in the nation’s gross domestic product (GDP) and is also a part of civilization. Countries’ economies are also influenced by the amount of crop production. All business trading involves farming as a major factor. In order to increase crop production, different technological advancements are developed to acquire the information required for crop production. The proposed work is mainly focused on suitable crop selection across districts in Tamil Nadu, considering phenotype factors such as soil type, climatic factors, cropping season, and crop region. The key objective is to predict the suitable crop for the farmers based on their locations, soil types, and environmental factors. This results in less financial loss and a shorter crop production timeframe. Combined feature selection (CFS)-based machine regression helps increase crop production rates. A brief comparative analysis was also made between various machine learning (ML) regression algorithms, which majorly contributed to the process of crop selection considering phenotype factors. Stacked long short-term memory (LSTM) classifiers outperformed other decision tree (DT), k-nearest neighbor (KNN), and logistic regression (LR) with a prediction accuracy of 93% with the lowest classification accuracy metrics. The proposed method can help us select the perfect crop for maximum yield.
Yield Forecasting to Sustain the Agricultural Transportation UnderStochastic ...IJRESJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: Agricultural transportation is a major part of the United States’ transportation systems. This system follows a complex multimodal network consisting of highway, railway, and waterways which are mostly based on the yield of the agricultural commodities and their market values. The yield of agricultural commodities is dependent on stochastic environment such as weather conditions, rainfall, soil type and natural disasters. Different techniques such as leaf growth index, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), and regression analysis are used to forecast the yield for the end of harvest season. The yield forecasting techniques are used to predict the agricultural transportation needs and improve the cost minimization. This study provides a model for yield forecasting using NDVI data, Geographical Information System (GIS), and statistical analysis. A case study is presented to demonstrate this model with a novel tool for collecting NDVI data.
Comparative Study of Machine Learning Algorithms for Rainfall Predictionijtsrd
Majority of Indian framers depend on rainfall for agriculture. Thus, in an agricultural country like India, rainfall prediction becomes very important. Rainfall causes natural disasters like flood and drought, which are encountered by people across the globe every year. Rainfall prediction over drought regions has a great importance for countries like India whose economy is largely dependent on agriculture. A sufficient data length can play an important role in a proper estimation drought, leading to a better appraisal for drought risk reduction. Due to dynamic nature of atmosphere statistical techniques fail to provide good accuracy for rainfall prediction. So, we are going to use Machine Learning algorithms like Multiple Linear Regression, Random Forest Regressor and AdaBoost Regressor, where different models are going to be trained using training data set and tested using testing data set. The dataset which we have collected has the rainfall data from 1901 2015, where across the various drought affected states. Nonlinearity of rainfall data makes Machine Learning algorithms a better technique. Comparison of different approaches and algorithms will increase an accuracy rate of predicting rainfall over drought regions. We are going to use Python to code for algorithms. Intention of this project is to say, which algorithm can be used to predict rainfall, in order to increase the countries socioeconomic status. Mylapalle Yeshwanth | Palla Ratna Sai Kumar | Dr. G.

Remote Sensing (RS), UAV/drones, and Machine Learning (ML) as powerful techni...nitinrane33
Precision agriculture utilizes modern technology to optimize agricultural practices, resulting in increased productivity while reducing costs and environmental impact. The use of remote sensing (RS), drones or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and machine learning (ML) has significantly transformed precision agriculture. These advanced technologies provide farmers with accurate, cost-effective, and timely tools to manage crops and resources effectively. This paper evaluates the use of these techniques in precision agriculture, including their benefits, and effective applications. Remote sensing involves using satellites, aircraft, or drones to collect data on crops and the environment, such as soil moisture, temperature, and vegetation indices. With high-resolution images and three-dimensional maps of crops, UAVs enable farmers to identify and address issues like pest infestations or nutrient deficiencies. Machine learning algorithms analyze large amounts of data to predict crop yields, optimize irrigation and fertilization, and identify areas of the field that need attention. Several case studies highlight the effectiveness of these techniques in different agricultural settings. However, the paper also acknowledges the challenges associated with adopting these technologies, such as cost, data management, and regulatory issues. While the initial investment in drones and sensors may be high, the long-term benefits in terms of increased yields, reduced costs, and environmental sustainability are substantial. Farmers need to be trained in the use of these technologies to make informed decisions, and effective data management and analysis are crucial. Additionally, regulatory frameworks are still evolving, and clear guidelines are required for data privacy, safety, and ethical use. Although challenges remain, the benefits of increased productivity, reduced costs, and environmental sustainability make these technologies an attractive investment for farmers worldwide.

Abstract: Weather has the most significant influence on agriculture. Various weather phenomenon such as
cloudiness, precipitation, temperature, and wind have significant influence on agri-management decisions,
management practices and cost of cultivation. Therefore, there is need for development of crop specific advisory
to an individiual farmers based on various crop parameters such as type of crop, age of crop, location of crop
etc. However, existing advisories are region specific and gives vague advisory and also not available for
specific location. This paper is focused on giving overview of development of fuzzy logic based to generate
automatic advisory based on type of crop, location of crop and age of the crop. The expert knowledge base
available with the agricultural scientists will be utilized for developing automatic crop advisory system using
machine learning approach such as Fuzzy Logic. This system is developed with the help of PHP and GUI of
weather advisory is made in MATLAB. Testing of realistic weather data and randomly generated weather data
is done and Success Rate of both data was calculated.
Keywords -Fuzzy Logic, Weather Data, Weather Advisory System, Crop Advisory System.
I. Introduction
The introduction of the paper should explain the nature of the problem, previous work, purpose, and the
contribution of the paper. The contents of each section may be provided to understand easily about the paper.
Agriculture in India depends heavily on weather and climate conditions. Weather forecasts are useful for
decisions regarding crop choice, crop variety, planting/harvesting dates, and investments in farm inputs such as
irrigation, fertilizer, pesticide, herbicide etc. Hence, improved weather forecast based agromet advisory service
greatly helps farmers to take advantage of benevolent weather and mitigate the impacts of malevolent weather
situation.
The quality and the reliability of long range forecast and extended range forecast are to be improved for
preparation and improved weather based agro-advisories. Early drought warnings and their management
strategies are to be expended to district level. For monitoring crop growth I any current season, for each crop
species, preparation of crop weather diagrams or calendars depicting current events of crop growth is advisable.
Development of weather based forewarning systems is the need of the hour in limiting possible excessive usage
of insecticides, pesticides and fungicides [1].
Compared to various other sectors of economy, agriculture is unique, whose output is largely
dependent on weather conditions. Further to this, it also depends on management aspects of preventing the crops
from severe weather conditions. This study begins with highlighting the significance of short and medium range
weather forecasts for making adjustments in daily farm operations, followed by detailed description of how
weather forecasts are generated and disseminated by the NCMRWF through its AAS units. It is logical to think
that dissemination of information in vernacular languages to the farm households would have a higher degree of
uptake by the target groups [2].
II. Present Theories and Practices
V. Rao et al [1] provides the overview of the Agrometeorological activities and integration of modern
tools in relation to achieve sustainable agriculture in future. Significant achievements include creation of a
network of agromet observatories, climatic database and development of models for crop yield forecasting,
climatic classification of agricultural, starting of agro advisory units, creating of databank for agrometeorology,
integrated agro advisory services, creation of facilities for training and capacity building and national and
international cooperation through joint programmes.
Anurag et al [3] proposed Geographical Information System in agrometeorology. The versatile tools or
operators available in GIS help in analyzing meteorological data precisely and quickly. GIS methods allow the
intensive analysis of spatial and temporal patterns of many atmospheric parameters, providing an in-depth look
into the regularities and variability of weather and climate. Timely and accurate Agrometeorological
information and forecasts have been recognized as effective tools for crucial decision making in routine farm
operations. Surendersingh et al [4] has developed web based Agrometeorological information system for
sustainable agricultural development. The efficiency of any Agrometeorological service lies in its ability to
2. Fuzzy Logic based Individual Crop Advisory System based on Weather Input Data
DOI: 10.9790/0661-17443745 www.iosrjournals.org 38 | Page
disseminate timely and relevant Agrometeorological information to the user community, so that they can act on
it suitably to augment productivity.
Agrometeorological information, used for decision making, represents part of a continuum; at the other
end is scientific knowledge and understanding. Other components of this continuum are the collection of data
and transforming data into useful information. Information has value when it is disseminated in such a way that
the end-users get the maximum benefit in applying its content. Weiss A. et al [5] explored the potential of the
new information and communications technologies to improve the access to agrometeorological information.
Sue walker [6] proposes the dissemination of Agrometeorological information for personal relationship between
the parties with continuity being maintained by regular contact and interactions with open communication
channels. The content of the message must be relevant to the decisions of the client.
India meteorological department (IMD) is disseminating agromet advisory bulletins to farmers and
other stakeholders through about 130 Agro Meteorological Field Units (AMFUs). The AMFUs prepare district-
level agromet bulletins which are prepared based on weather forecast and existing crop status information. An
effort has started to develop an IT-enabled agro-meteorological advisory system called eAgromet, to improve
the efficiency of agromet advisory bulletin preparation and dissemination process by exploiting advances in
both agriculture and information technologies. In this paper, Krishna P et al. [7] explain the architecture of
eAgromet prototype. Parvinder et al [8] had conducted a pilot study to assess the economic impact of weather
forecast-based advisories issued to 15 of the 127 Agrometeorological Advisory Service (AAS) units of the
Ministry of Earth Sciences, Government of India. Six seasons comprising three Kharif (summer) and three Rabi
(winter) during 2003–2007 were chosen. The main aim was to study the percentage increase/decrease in the
yield and net return due to AAS.
In general, soft computing methods include Fuzzy Logic, neuro-computing, evolutionary computing,
probabilistic computing, belief networks, chaotic systems, and parts of learning theory. FL, ANNs, GAs, BI and
DT have been widely applied for research and development in agricultural and biological engineering. Bardossy
et al [9] had applied a fuzzy rule-based methodology to the problem of classifying daily atmospheric circulation
patterns (CP). Rules are defined corresponding to the geographical location of pressure anomalies. The fuzzy
rule-based approach thus has potential to be applicable to the classification of GCM produced daily CPs for the
purpose of predicting the effect of climate change on space-time precipitation over areas where only a
rudimentary classification exists or where none at all exists.
Agboola et al., [10] has investigated the ability of fuzzy rules/logic in modeling rainfall for South
Western Nigeria. The developed Fuzzy Logic model is made up of two functional components; the knowledge
base and the fuzzy reasoning or decision-making unit. The model predicted outputs were compared with the
actual rainfall data. The developed fuzzy rule-based model shows flexibility and ability in modeling an ill-
defined relationship between input and output variables. Somia et al. [11] had interested in rainfall events
prediction by applying rule-based reasoning and fuzzy logic. Five parameters: relative humidity, total cloud
cover, wind direction, temperature and surface pressure are the input variables for their model, each has three
membership functions. Among the overall 243 possibilities they had taken one hundred eighteen fuzzy IF–
THEN rules and fuzzy reasoning. The output variable which has four membership functions, takes values from
zero to one hundred corresponding to the percentage for rainfall events given for every hourly data.
Savita et al. [12] designed an interface for three subsystems—the knowledge acquisition subsystem
with dynamic disease knowledge base, intelligent disease diagnosis subsystem with object-oriented intelligent-
inference model and intelligent tutor for crop disease with audio-visual graphical user web interface. The paper
describes the design features; functionality and development of intelligent multimedia web interface. Baum et al
[13] proposed a fuzzy logic classification (FLC) methodology to achieve the two goals : 1) to discriminate
between clear sky and clouds in a 32 3 32 pixel array, or sample, of 1.1-km Advanced Very High Resolution
Radiometer data, and 2) if clouds are present, to discriminate between single-layered and multilayered clouds
within the sample. To achieve these goals, eight FLC modules are derived that are based broadly on air mass
type and surface type (land or water). The training and testing data used by the FLC are collected from more
than 150 daytime AVHRR local area coverage scenes recorded between 1991 and 1994 over all seasons. Fuzzy
logic is a powerful concept for handling nonlinear, time varying and adaptive systems. It permits the use of
linguistic values of variables and imprecise relationships for modeling system behavior. Brian et al [14] presents
an overview of fuzzy logic modeling techniques, its applications to biological and agricultural systems and an
example showing the steps of constructing a fuzzy logic model. Jadhav et al [15] presents the knowledge based
diagnosis of nutrient deficiency observed in sugarcane crop using fuzzy prolog rules. Fuzzy logic is a form of
many-valued logic; it deals with reasoning that is approximate rather than fixed and exact. For the adequate
growth of sugarcane crop, nutrients are required. It assists or guides the farmers, experts, counselors in
agricultural field to find out nutrient deficiency on the basis of symptoms appeared on the leaves of sugarcane
crop using fuzzy prolog rules.

III. Formation Of Fuzzy Rules
A database is an organized collection of data. It is the collection of tables, queries, reports, views and
other objects. The data is typically organized to model aspects of reality in a way that supports processes
requiring information. Database management systems are computer software applications that interact with the
user, other applications, and the database itself to capture and analyze data. A general-purpose DBMS is
designed to allow the definition, creation, querying, update, and administration of databases. In this study, for
the database formation weather data is collected from website of ‗National Research Center for Grapes‘, Pune.
The weather data is available from 12th August 2003 to 31st August 2013. And this weather data is collected
from weather station no. 1891.
Study parameters are Temperature, Humidity and Rainfall. But in our database min, max and average
observations are available. Therefore, study parameters are minTemperature, maxTemperature,
avgTemperature, minHumidity, maxHumidity, avgHumidity and Rainfall. For the formation of rule we take
low, medium and high range to each parameter i.e. seven parameters. Based on the combination rules become
more than 2000. After so many trial and errors we reach at conclusion that 27 rules are formed. These are shown
in following table as:

IV. Development of Fuzzy System
A Fuzzy logic presents robust and flexible inference methods in domains subject to imprecision and
uncertainty. The linguistic representation of knowledge allows a human to interact with a fuzzy system in an
intuitive, seamless manner. A key objective of this section is to design of fuzzy systems for advisory.
Consider that the inputs of the fuzzy systems are represented by X and outputs are represented by Z. The
objective is to find the mapping between X and Z. In advisory system, the weather data obtained from the
database of different parameter Xi can be used as inputs and advisory in terms of Rule will be the output of the
fuzzy system. Here,
X= tureavgTemperaeTemperatureTemperatur ,max,min and
Z = 27....,.........2,1 RuleRuleRule
The weather parameters tureavgTemperaeTemperatureTemperatur ,max,min are treated as
input variables. Fuzzy sets with Gaussian membership functions are used to define these input variables. These
fuzzy sets can be defined using the following equation
Where mean and standard deviation of the Gaussian membership function are obtained from the mean
and standard deviation of each parameter of weather data in this study.
Success rate is calculated using the results obtained after defuzzification. If we test samples of noisy data
and out of that if the system correctly classifies times then success rate for rule p as a percentage is given as
Gaussian Membership Function:
In this section, we formulate a fuzzy classifier for weather advisory in twenty seven rules as
27....,.........2,1 RuleRuleRule using the 7 features (i.e. 03 of Temperature, 03 of Humidity and 1 of
Rainfall). The Gaussian membership function used for the design of this fuzzy system. Based on the
observations of weather of twenty seven rules, the mean and standard deviations are obtained to tune the fuzzy
classifier.Gaussian membership functions for 7 features are shown in Figures 4.2-4.4 for Temperature, Humidity
and Rainfall based features, respectively. Based on the membership function shown in these figures the
membership function for weather data will be obtained. The membership value of each feature will contribute to
decide the rule for weather advisory.

V. Testing For Real Weather Data
In this section, we are testing the weather data of 10 year (from 12th
Aug 2003 to 31st
Aug. 2013). For
testing we partitioned the data in 50-50% partition (50% for training and 50% for testing), 80-20% and 70-30%.
Then calculate the performance of fuzzy classifier for Temperature, Humidity and Rainfall which is shown in
table 5.1.

and Rainfall shows 99.9383% minimum success rate at 50-50% partition. Also it is observed from above table
that all the three weather parameter gives maximum success rate at 70-30% partition as for Temperature &
Rainfall it is 100% and for Humidity it is 99.9375%.
The fuzzy classification performance for twenty seven rules of Temperature, Humidity and three rules
of Rainfall is also calculated. These performances are comparatively summarized in Figure 5.1-5.2. From these
tables and Figure, it is observed that 70-30% partition give far better performance as compared to 50-50% and
80-20% partition performance.

VI. PHP based Implementation
In this section, PHP based implementation of weather and crop advisory using fuzzy based approach is
described for the easy usage of this methodology whose snapshots are shown in figure 6.1 and 6.2. Figure 6.1
shows the front pages of PHP based advisory system whereas figure 6.2 shows the working steps of Advisory
system (weather as well as crop).
Figure 6.1: Front page of PHP for Advisory System
[1]. Working of PHP based Advisory System using the following stepsas:
[2]. First go to Login. If farmer is new user then go to Register and make registration with his primary information and get the username
for Login as shown in Figure6.2(b).
[3]. After Login he must give the village name and select the option which advisiry he wants to know as mentioned in Figure6.2(c).
[4]. If farmer/user select weather advisory option, he gets the weather information of village name which he enter as shown in
Figure6.2(d). when he enters the village name then it is automatically connected to weather forecasting link which gives the weather
of that particular vilage. Weather is the input to the Fuzzy System which gives output in the form of Weather Advisory.
[5]. As shown in Figure6.2(e) and (f) if farmer/user select the Crop Advisory option, then he gets the crop advisory with the age of crop
of that particular crop which he mentioned in Name of Crop. Also, this system will be included with planning aspects such as
watering pattern, numerical or fertilizer doses with respect to age of the crop. System will automatically calculate the age of
individual‘s crop, based on input date of crop sowing or flowering or cutting or punning etc.
[6]. If farmer/user wants both the advisory then choose the option Weather and Crop Advisory then he will get both the advisory as
shown in Figure6.2(g) and (h).
a) Login page for farmer b) Registration page for new farmer

VII. Conclusion
Advisory system developed using fuzzy classifier is studied in this thesis. Conclusions of this study are
given below:
1. In data analysis and cluster formation, from weather parameter plots and the combination of parameter plots
it is observed that in some combination of fuzzy rule there is no weather data is available. Those
combinations are deleted and twenty seven fuzzy rules are formed for the development of advisory system.
2. Fuzzy logic classifier is developed for advisory system. This classifier is developed for rules by using
weather data as input. These classifiers are tested for various sets of weather data inputs. The classifier
gives superior classification performance for all the three parameter such as Temperature, Humidity and
Rainfall. While testing for various sets of weather data inputs, it is observed that 70-30% partition give far
better performance as compared to 50-50% and 80-20% partition performance.
3. Demonstration of fuzzy classifier is done in PHP. PHP tests the three parameters Temperature, Humidity
and Rainfall using fuzzy logic and generates the message, which tells rule generated from fuzzy logic.
