  • Abstract
    Supported by the 3S technology, precision farming can intensively and accurately make and adjust its strategy in crop management. This requires us to establish the rule of space division at the very beginning. In this paper, we, creatively, divide the basic units of farming database into three groups-cooperative base agriculture units, establishment agriculture units and natural farmland parcel units. Accordingly, a technological process is proposed to build this farming database. Afterwards, a relevant WebGIS service system is developed as an application case of this farming database. Consequently, the technological process in this paper accepts little restriction from the existing agricultural management system and is easy to expand to other farming area in China.
