Campania agro-meteorological network: maintenance at CAE

CAE was awarded the tender for maintenance, operation and maintenance service on the equipment at the agro-meteorological centre and its measurement network.

The network is made up of 37 stations distributed throughout the region and the data collected is used to support the decisions of farms relating to phytosanitary defence of agricultural crops, orienting them towards environmentally sustainable production methods with low environmental impact, while also increasing their resilience to climate change.

The existing network consists entirely of “non-CAE” technology, but the company's excellent capabilities as a system integrator and service provider allowed it to win the tender, while the software part will continue to enable the data acquisition system to be integrated with the regional portal, the Campania Region's central hub that collects and interprets geospatial data. “The investments the company has made in recent years to learn how to handle third-party technologies are proving decisive,” says Chairman Guido Bernardi.

The required services are divided under the following two macro headings:

1. routine maintenance on the stations that make up the agro-meteorological network, and carrying out analysis work;
2. monitoring the agro-meteorological network to ensure it is operating correctly, with a view to correcting any technical or IT faults.
