This chapter presents the digital transformation in agriculture. The Remote Sensing domain opened incredible possibilities for the analysis and monitoring of our planet. The satellites orbiting around the Earth provide peta-bytes of remotely-sensed data per day. The optical and RADAR data are used in a plethora of applications, like meteorology, climate change, environment and pollution monitoring, crisis management, ocean and marine environment monitoring, forestry, land, and biodiversity. Agriculture 5.0 fosters the latest cutting-edge technologies from the domains of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT) and Blockchain for smart agriculture. Remotely-sensed data at various levels, from in-situ and aerial to satellite, combined with AI-based techniques allow for various applications like crop monitoring, weed and harmful insect detection and removal in real time, plant disease identification and precise treatment application etc.
