Digital transformation in action

1.1. Delivering on digital platforms

“It is our priority to leverage the capabilities of digital and data as accelerators to support agricultural digital transformation.”

Zhongxin Chen

The development, continuous improvement and scaling up of digital platforms to provide actionable data for sustainable agriculture are an integral part of FAO’s work. They are essential to FAO’s work in allowing the delivery of appropriate information, in relevant time, for more evidence-based decision-making, for accurate natural resource management and improved production, among many other actions for impact. Within this perspective, a number of improvements have been made on the flagship FAO HiH Geospatial Platform, as well as the development of new collaborations within and outside FAO, on other FAO major applications and corporate platforms in and for the field and with external partnerships. 1.1.1. HiH Geospatial Platform: bringing together geospatial and statistical data for more targeted agricultural interventions

Turning data into actionable information for sustainable agriculture

“Geospatial technologies and agricultural data represent an opportunity to find new ways of reducing hunger and poverty through more accessible and integrated data-driven solutions.”
