The TerraByte project at UWinnipeg has several goals to improve and develop digital ag: 1) the development of large databases of plant and weed images that will be open to Canadian researchers and industry, (2) the development of machine learning (ML) models for plant identification and classification that will be useful for automated methods of phenotyping/breeding, disease detection, weed detection, etc.; (3) the development of new imaging techniques and sensors that can assist with these tasks, (iv) the development of an automated data rover to collect high volumes and quality of such data in test plots; (5) extensive academic and industry partnerships to move the aforementioned toward real world use and commercialization.

Work with the grower's associations in Manitoba, specifically Manitoba Pulse & Soy Growers Association and Canola Council, and Manitoba Crop Alliance, Morden Community Development Corp. Our industry partners include Northstar robotics, R-Tech, Valley Prototyping Solutions, Conviron and Sightline. Our database is hosted by Compute Canada. At the University of Winnipeg we use several self-developed robotic systems to image plants. We have access to greenhouses and our own growing chamber to grow plants in. Further equipment includes several RGB-cameras, a multispectral 3d-scanner (Phenospex) and multiple hyperspectral cameras.
