Microsoft and NDSU Ag

Crop Variety Trial Data Ingestion Tool

Team: Harrison Swift, Skyler Skees, Levi Iverson, Adam Pearson, Steven Champagne

This is a collaborative project between Microsoft and the NDSU Big Data Pipeline Unit. This application handles the data ingestion of Crop Variety Trial data from research extension centers (RECs) across North Dakota. These RECs upload CSV files into our React-based front-end and are then processed through our Typescript API. The files can then be modified and used to generate formatted reports for the Annual Crop Variety Trial Reports. These reports contain data on a number of different varieties of a crop to directly compare their performance against any number of characteristics. This will help to eliminate a considerable amount of manual work that is currently done to generate these reports.
