Application

The mobile application
that simplifies field control

The inspiration behind the creation of FABER was the idea to have a single platform for taking pictures and certifying the existence of the declared crop. FABER provides a suitable solution for ground-truth certification of location-based agricultural subsidies.

With the aid of the application – after registration – one can simply take certified photographs of their parcels. Beyond the visual content of these pictures, the registration of the location and time of taking the photo, ID of the user and the plot’s unique ID serve for further certification.
