SEBASTIEN, large-scale ICT-based services to support smart livestock farming

Cineca is increasingly engaged in the sector of smart agriculture.

Besides Highlander, Cineca is now involved in SEBASTIEN project, that aims to implement large-scale ICT based services to support smart livestock farming and management in order to better face climate change challenges and other environmental stressors.

SEBASTIEN started at the beginning of the year and is coordinated by CMCC foundation; it relies on Cineca for the HPC exploitation of monitoring data and on climate simulations data from Highlander. Datasets, as well as HPC-based tools and services, will be accessible to multiple real users involved during the project.
