摘要：Demands for geospatial information and geodata accessibility to support vineyard management using new technology for precisionfarming are increasing worldwide.In this paper a WebGIS application is presented, it has been developed to support the on-going researches of Consorzio TuscaniaProject on precision viticulture in Tuscany, aiming at the assessment of the impact of different vineyard canopy managementtechniques on grape quality. Within this framework, a parallel goal was also to build a Web service to support operationalapplications for agronomic treatments and grape harvest and to provide digital images for mobile devices that can be also integratedon agricultural machineries.A geoportal has been developed to organize geospatial data and services through (i) a viewer, (ii) a catalogue containing metadatarecords and (iii) a geodatabase where all data and results of Research Project are stored.Thanks to web services, users can view, analyse and download vegetation indices derived from airborne remote sensing highresolutionproducts, agrometeorological data of a Wireless Sensor Network located in the vineyards and others reference data tosupport vineyard precision farming practices.The web architecture as well as the user interface were implemented using open source tools in order to guarantee the webapplication sustainability and the implementation of customized geospatial functions required by the project stakeholders.MapServer was used with PHP/Ajax technologies to develop all components of Web mapping application and PostgreSQL was usedas data warehouse for geodata and alphanumeric data management.On-the-fly processing and map visualization show the high potentialities in a reliable, accessible and personalized use of Internet tomonitor the vineyards characteristics during the growing season and to improve grape harvest management.
