The problem statement was: "The Field executive needs to survey the land holding of a farmer. The field executive is expected to verify the area of the farmland and the type of soil/crop present in the field. This information is to be used by the underwriting team to approve the loan" by Jai Kisaan
Backend: Django REST Framework, Python
Database: SQLite
APIs: Open Street Map (for projecting the land and its calculating its area on a geolocation map like Google Map)
1. The field executive can work around the perimeter of the land with the mobile application and click pictures along the way.
2. The co-ordinates of the land boundaries are taken according to the location of field execuive.
3. The area of the field is calculated using co-ordinates and plotted on the Google-map.
4. The pictures of the soil and crop can be taken and stored in the runtime.
5. A final report is generated for the underwriting bank loan approval team which displays all the survey by the field executed and can also be downloaded in pdf.
6. The pictures of soil and crops can be further used for prediction of crop suitability for the quality of soil.
