Data aggregation from precision farming tools

Purpose

1.1. Automate unified extraction, normalization, and reporting of data from diverse precision farming tools for compliance, operational analytics, and performance benchmarking across all cooperative-owned fields and partnered farms.
1.2. Enable real-time and scheduled aggregation to ensure regulatory conformance, accurate yield forecasting, optimization of resource use, and audit-ready traceability leveraging third-party agritech, sensor, and analytics platforms.
1.3. Proactively feed aggregated data to BI dashboards, compliance systems, and agronomic advisory modules for timely insights and action.

Trigger Conditions

2.1. New field data upload by sensor platform or IoT device.
2.2. Scheduled task (e.g., end-of-day, weekly) initiates data pull and aggregation cycle.
2.3. Field audit request by compliance personnel.
2.4. Remote/manual initiation from field manager's dashboard.
2.5. API/webhook notification from precision ag tool or external partner system.
