Relevance Title

Collection of test data during physical testing

Politecnico di Milano (POLIMI)

Through this service, we provide specialised technical systems (both hardware and software) and expertise for collecting relevant data during testing.

The scope of the data collected can vary, encompassing information generated by the agrifoodTEF technical infrastructure (e.g., through the installation of IoT sensors), data from the system under test, and ground truth data for system evaluation. If needed, this service can facilitate the interconnection between agrifoodTEF's data collection systems and the customer's systems.

In addition to the raw data collected, we will supply customers with comprehensive documentation detailing the logged features, conditions of the testing environment at the time of testing, and any parameter values, variation ranges, and specifics necessary for reproducibility.

When required, data collection and documentation activities may involve field experts such as engineers and agronomists.

Please note that annotation and labeling of collected data, if necessary, can be provided through service S00115.

Collection of test data

Collection of test data during digital testing

Politecnico di Milano (POLIMI)

One of the key activities during digital testing is the collection of data concerning the progression and the final outcome of the tests. Such data enable the evaluation of system performance by the customer or – if needed – by AgrifoodTEF (via Service S00184). This service manages the collection of data relevant to performance evaluation produced during the tests by both the system under test and the computational environment where the tests take place.

Examples of collected data comprise information produced within a virtual environment to simulate sensor data collection in a physical environment; statistics about AI model performance in the test and deployment phase (e.g., occupied memory, number of trainable parameters, training/optimisation loss, etc.); specific labels and annotations to use as ground truth for evaluating the system; and system output when subjected to a range of test conditions. The minimum set of data to be collected is defined by the evaluation metrics that the user chose (either on their own or with AgrifoodTEF support, via Service S00178) to process them; generally, a larger set of data wrt the minimum is selected by AgrifoodTEF together with the customer to provide a richer view of the system’s performance and to enable the application of other metrics in the future, if needed. As an output of the service, in addition to the raw data, we also provide the customer with documentation describing logged features and conditions of the testing environment at the time of testing, as well as any parameter values, variation ranges and specifics required for reproducibility purposes.

Container image generator that facilitates efficient software testing and deployment

Gradiant Technologies

Container images have become the de facto standard for software delivery in a variety of industries, including agrifood. Packaging an application and all its dependencies in a container image ensures consistency across different deployment environments, allowing these applications to be tested more quickly and efficiently. Once the container image is built, it can be run by different container management tools, for example, Docker or Podman.

However, creating secure and optimised container images is often complex. This service simplifies the process by automatically generating container images from the application source code. It detects dependencies and environmental requirements, removing the need for the customer to perform and/or to possess technical expertise in container technologies.
The process is fully automated: the user provides the source code reference with secure access, and the service handles the rest. This eliminates the need to manage image creation files and reduces potential human error during the image creation phase, allowing developers to focus on innovation and functionality.

Data Analysis for Smart Irrigation Systems

This service allows companies to experiment with real-time data and advanced analytics to improve water management, reduce waste, and enhance crop yield. The service includes comprehensive testing and evaluation to ensure compatibility and performance, ensuring efficient irrigation practices and sustainability through insights into soil moisture, weather conditions, and plant water needs.

Data Collection using UGVs and modular sensor payloads

Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK)

This service consists of deploying a modular sensor payload (equipped with Lidar, inertial motion units, GNSS, Radar, stereo cameras, and ultra-wideband technology) to agricultural environments such as vineyards and orchards to collect and annotate high-fidelity datasets tailored to customer needs. Data are systematically labelled and can be delivered to agrifoodTEF customers as structured datasets for AI-driven agricultural solutions.

Collection of test data

Data labelling

Politecnico di Milano (POLIMI)

This service concerns the curation of ground truth annotations for testing and experimentation data. More specifically, data labelling concerns the association of portions of data (e.g., image regions) to descriptions that provide information about the significance of those portions. In particular, labelling is required whenever the data are meant to be used for model training. We also provide labelling services for domain-specific data attributes, such as disease indicators and their confounding factors, by experts in agronomy. The labelled data will be accompanied by a report synthesising quality metrics and statistics like the number of data points annotated, the percentage of the full set covered for the annotations, the number of annotators and the inter-annotator agreement.

Data augmentation

Data validation and processing

Politecnico di Milano (POLIMI)

Through this service, we offer customers the ability to validate and augment the data collected during the different testing phases. Examples of operations that this service can provide include quality checks (e.g., presence of all datastreams, presence of drop-outs, technical quality such as focus or exposure of camera images, agronomic significance of data); preparation for performance evaluation (e.g., identification of the images containing selected visual markers or specific plants, association between images from the system under test and the ground truth); data processing (e.g., transcoding) and augmentation (e.g., generation and incorporation of metadata). Data labelling (e.g., to enable training of AI models) is not included, as it is the object of a separate service (S00291).

Dataspace use case design analysis

Gradiant Technologies

Creating a dataspace involves significant costs and time investment. Technology-related expenses include evolving and adapting reference software components (such as participant agents (connectors), identity and access management mechanisms, and data catalogues), designing the dataspace, and deploying it in a public or private cloud infrastructure. To justify these costs, a compelling value proposition for each data space participant (consumers or providers) is crucial.
The primary aim of the service is to assist the customer in designing well-defined dataspace use cases. The service offers aid in the definition of the purpose, review of the participant roles (that could be data provider, data consumer, data intermediary, or part of the data space governance authority), business and governance models outline, and specification of the reference architecture and user interface of the dataspace.
Tools used in this process include the Starter Kit for Data Space Designers [1], Data Cooperation Canvas [2], Use Case Playbook [3], and Use Case Blueprint [4].

Desk assessment

Design of computational environments for digital testing

Politecnico di Milano (POLIMI)

Test activities involve three key components: the environment (where the tests are conducted), the protocol (defining what tests are performed and how), and evaluation metrics (used to assess the test results). Through this service, we assist customers in designing a computational environment tailored to running the digital tests required for their software components. Specifically, this service:

Defines the data (and metadata) requirements needed to support the test
Identifies the necessary software environment (e.g., operating system, libraries)
Selects an appropriate simulator and defines simulated environments, if required
Chooses remote access tools, if applicable.

As a result, we deliver a comprehensive design of the testing environment, including specifications such as memory requirements, GPU/TPU acceleration, and necessary libraries. This environment can be deployed on either the agrifoodTEF digital infrastructure or the customer's computing infrastructure (i.e., on premises).
