AgGateway is a global, non-profit organization whose members develop standards and other resources so that companies can rapidly access information. Their mission is to promote and enable the industry’s transition to digital agriculture and expand the use of information to maximize efficiency and productivity.

With 200 member companies, Ag Gateway provides a unique, global forum across industry sectors, so that companies can meet to solve digital challenges for agriculture and related industries.

At the fall 2019 Ag Gateway meeting, three Purdue Open Ag Technology and Systems Center faculty and staff presented some topics that were captured on video for educational purposes.

  1. Professor James V. Krogmeier went from the very basics of the Python 3.0 language to generating visualizations of real GPS and ISOBus data collected by an ISOBlue (isoblue.org) device during harvest. The tutorial was created in a Jupyter notebook and everything is released open source.
  2. Aaron Ault presented an intuitive and interactive tool for understanding the fundamental workings of a blockchain and presented clear guidelines on whether your problem would benefit from such a system or not.

Additionally, Aaron presented an OATS innovation that allows for a new paradigm in certification, privacy, and data sharing: an Oblivious Smart Contract.
  3. Andrew Balmos presented a new way of thinking about agriculture networks that leverage available rural broadband when it can, but doesn't’t depend on it. A dynamic collection of a machine-to-machine and machine-to-sensor networks, combined with a store-and-forward algorithm can help solve rural agriculture IoT connectivity issues. It does so by moving data from rural to populated as the farm’s vehicles move about during normal operations.
