How 5G enabled
5G can maximise automation looking at the total end workflows. The order of priority will be driven by the maximum labour savings impact.
Data Flows
Title
Devices
Icon
Description
Install the sensors as a result of the workflow (see below)
Be ready to install a broad spectrum of sensors: 5G (images) and others (temp / water / soil / etc.)
Title
Connectivity
Icon
Description
Equipment (time series) sensor data transmission
Information from storage facilities is also sent to Enterprise storage
Title
Edge Compute
Icon
Description
5G (real-time) collecting and actioning data to be exploited to see how it can reduce labour numbers
Title
Cloud Compute & Storage
Icon
Description
Equipment data stored to train AI algorithms
All data stored in Enterprise storage
Title
Applications & Services
Icon
Description
AI (ML/MV) models to be developed to drive down labour needs (automation / robots)
Title
Inform Decision Makers
Icon
Description
Executing the agreed workflows should result in minimal need for human intervention

End of process
Application Logic
Description
List all end to end workflows and order by labour usage: high to low.
Once we have that list, determine for each workflow how 5G-enabled Digital Services can make a difference and paint the end-to-end picture of what needs to happen at each step.
Also list how other digital services (LoRaWAN based) can help.Implement workflows described above.
Assume that combination of 5G and non-5G will make the difference.
Description
5G is important.
Developing AI – ML/MV models to predict will take a number of iterations where accuracy of these models (predictions) will improve over time.
SME involvement working with data scientists is required to develop the models.
Both MV and ML models to be used.
Expected benefits
Increase productivity level of each labourer (harvestors)
Better oversight on harvesting productivity at bloc-level and harvester-level
Capturing of activities in real-time via 5G for proactive action
