OPAZO, Sergio et al. Develop of gis web plataform for grassland dynamic monitoring in Magallanes. Anales Instituto Patagonia (Chile) [online]. 2014, vol.42, n.2, pp.39-51. ISSN 0718-686X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0718-686X2014000200003.

Abstract This document shows the development of a WEB platform based on Geographic Information System (GIS). This platform will be a powerful and versatile tool for Magellanic farmers, which will enable to check changes in their pastures condition through the years and be compared with the actual condition. That is important information to collaborate in management decisions. With the aim to know the pasture condition, there was created a product called Pasture Condition Index (PCI), made with satellite information, specifically from MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) images on board of TERRA and AQUA satellites. This system, also include static products from space high resolution images as Worldview-2, IKONOS-2 and Geoeye-1, and the generation of a transfer system for climatic information at real time, from field stations to the WEB platform. The results are an easy access and interpretation WEB platform that enables farmers to acquire information with update high frequency, considering this as an important tool for the management decisions.
