About
Andrew Robson is a leading figure in precision horticulture, specializing in the integration of high-resolution remote sensing, geographic information systems (GIS), and digital mapping technologies to transform fruit production and agricultural auditing. His seminal work, "High resolution remote sensing, GIS and Google Earth for avocado fruit quality mapping and tree number auditing" (2016, 13 citations), presented at the prestigious ISHS XXIX International Horticultural Congress, established a foundational methodology for using satellite and aerial imagery to assess orchard health, predict fruit quality, and accurately count tree populations at scale. This contribution directly addresses critical industry needs for efficient resource management and yield optimization. Robson’s research has been instrumental in bridging the gap between advanced geospatial tools and practical on-farm decision-making, enabling growers to move from reactive to proactive management. His achievements include pioneering the use of Google Earth for low-cost, accessible precision agriculture, demonstrating that sophisticated remote sensing can be democratized for broad commercial application. With a career focused on sustaining livelihoods through data-driven horticulture, Robson continues to shape the future of smart farming, making his work essential reading for students and researchers in agricultural technology, environmental monitoring, and digital agronomy.
