EU project: PANTHEON (Precision Farming of Hazelnut Orchards) is a research project funded by the European H2020 program (H2020-SFS-2016 – Sustainable Food Security). The project aims to define a new paradigm for precision farming in hazelnut orchards: a SCADA system capable of monitoring the phytosanitary status of each single geolocalized plant through data collected by drones and ground robots.

Company profile

PANTHEON resorts to remote sensing capabilities to collect very large amounts of data and reach the information granularity of the single plant. Research activities concerning the management of big data, in terms of collection, storage and processing, have been included in the project.

Founded in 1998, Sigma is a System Integration Company experienced in the Design of Electronic and ICT Systems (HW and SW) for satellite, avionics, naval and ground platforms and all related services such as: Logistic Support, Training and Customer service. The main fields of application are: DEFENCE & AEROSPACE: Flight & Radar Simulators, On-Board Simulators, Avionic Defense Systems; Operation Support Centers, Ground Station Control for UAV and Aircraft Missions, Automation Test Bench. ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING: Radio Emissions Monitoring System (HW and SW). HOMELAND SECURITY: ELINT Satellite, COMINT, RADAR, Intelligence Command & Control. CIVIL APPLICATIONS: Inertial Location / GPS, Telemedicine, Precision Farming, Smart City, Cybersecurity. Over its twenty years of activity, Sigma has signed agreements and partnerships with leading institutions and companies in the field of Aerospace and Defense such as the Italian Air Force, Italian Navy, Finmeccanica and Selex ES and Selex Galileo (now Leonardo), MBDA, ELT Elettronica, MES, Vitrociset, Alenia Aeronautica, Galileo Avionica, Aermacchi, Agusta Westland, Sirti, Alitalia, EADS, Northrop Grumman Italy.
