Satellite data can be used to monitor crop development of individual fields throughout the entire growing season. The system is currently being deployed in with AWBA in Myanmar. By comparing fields, relative performance can be calculated against regional and multi-year averages. This information can be used as input into credit-scoring engines of micro-credit providers to assess and decrease loan default risk of farmers.
