Description

The dataset CropNet includes three data modalities: Sentinel-2 images, WRF-HRRR weather data, and USDA agricultural data, covering 2200 counties in the United States over 6 years (2017-2022). These data are aligned spatially and temporally to facilitate the training of deep learning models aimed at accurately predicting agricultural yields taking into account climate and weather variations.

What is this dataset for?

  • Precise prediction of agricultural yields at the county level
  • Study on the impact of climate change on agriculture
  • Development of multimodal models combining images and tabular data

Can it be enriched or improved?

This dataset can be enriched by adding additional climate data, the annotation of specific agricultural phenomena, or the integration of socio-economic data for more comprehensive analyses.
