Integração de geoinformação no framework de rastreabilidade. de grãos

Abstract

The safety, quality and origin of food are the focus of current consumers, who seek information related to the system of production and care with the place of production. Conventional traceability systems correspond to appropriate technology for analyzing product information at any stage in the production chain, but they do not make specific data available in relation to the location and environment in which the products or batches of products were produced. Geotraceability allows us to complement this lack of traceability systems, making it possible to cover geographic information about the product. The association of geographic indicators and other information results in improved security of the traced product. RastroGrão is a grain traceability framework that records data from the agents of the production chain for later consultation by the final consumer, but was not modeled to make geoinformation available. The objective of this dissertation is to present the specification of geospatial data integration for RastroGrão. This research was based on the regulations and standards for the integration of geospatial data, as well as analysis of geoinformation management systems and analysis in GeoTraceAgri, GTIS CAP, GeoFairTrade, GeoWine and GeoRastro web software, which implement integrated geoinformation to traceability data of productive chains. In order to integrate the existing geographic information, it was necessary to use the Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) to combine several data sources, giving information about the analyzed area. With the integration of geospatial data, the agents of the production chain and consumers have accurate information about the products they consume, with verification of the location and environment, where the product was produced, transported and stored, as well as the practices involved in the production of a given product. This integration, with indicators, assists in ensuring product safety and protection of the environment, as well as providing sustainable agricultural control.
