Abstract: A classification framework for processing multi-band raster data for display of content included in such data includes a summarization phase and a retrieval phase. The classification framework generates summary descriptions of the multi-band raster data which are substantially smaller than the raster data itself, and approximates quantile breaks in the multi-band raster data so that storage space used to describe observations and network bandwidth required to retrieve the summary descriptions of the multi-band raster data are reduced, enabling speed improvements at least by faster retrieval and performance of computations for generating displays based on the raster data and for large-scale analysis.

Abstract: A framework for validating resistance traits in seed varieties in planted crops and monitoring crop treatments applied in planted fields ensures that an herbicide is not used on a non herbicide-resistant crop. A user provides a recommendation for a selected herbicide, and the framework performs seed trait analytics by gathering seed variety information in planting data and seed resistance traits in the planted seed variety, as well as active ingredients and any specific amounts thereof in the selected herbicide. If the seed variety is resistant to the proposed herbicide, the verification framework outputs a recommendation to proceed with the application. If the seed variety is not resistant to the proposed herbicide, then the verification framework outputs a warning to the user of a risk with proceeding with the application.
