GISTDA Unveils 'LANDX' Platform to Transform Thai Agriculture with Space Technology

The Geo-Informatics and Space Technology Development Agency (GISTDA) has announced the 'LANDX' platform as a new initiative to drive transformation in Thai agriculture through the application of space technology. This platform is designed to promote Thai agricultural products to the global market. GISTDA aims to enhance efficiency, precision, and sustainability in agricultural production by leveraging satellite data and other space-related technologies. The LANDX platform integrates these technologies to support farmers in making more data-driven decisions, thereby enabling a stable supply of high-quality agricultural products. This is expected to boost the competitiveness of Thai agricultural produce and increase its presence in the global market. This announcement aligns with the Thai government's strategy to transition towards a digital economy and high-value industries. The application of space technology in agriculture is also gaining attention as a measure to address challenges such as climate change and food security faced by Thailand.
