Survey on forecasts of crop plant grow potential - 22/07/2020 17:07 EDT -- 2

Hei and hej My family and I think about immigrating to Norway or Sweden to set up a small organic farm. To take a sound decision we would like to base it on geographical information, climatic forecasts in combination with agricultural knowledge. If you are interested in providing us with following information in form of a PostGIS database, we would appreciate you handing in an offer. Minimal requirement specifications proposal: - detailed manual to reproduce the results in PostGIS database - ensemble forecasts based on IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) approved models (it does NOT mean, the forecasts have to be calculated, see climate data section) - ensemble forecasts for rcp 8.5 and rcp 4.5 model calculations (it does NOT mean, the forecasts have to be calculated, see climate data section) - ensemble forecast for the years 2046, 2084 and 2100 (it does NOT mean, the forecasts have to be calculated, see climate data section) - ensemble forecasts for mainland of Norway and Sweden, i.e. no islands required - geographical data in "global" WGS84 - take into account the effect of prolonged vegetation period by use of polytunnels - forecasts of growth potential of crop plants (list below) - resulting artefacts open to the public (as to us), licensing under EUPL [login to view URL]:OJ.L_.2017.128.01.0059.01.ENG&toc=OJ:L:2017:128:FULL or compatible - artefacts maintained in Subversion repository of the SourceForge project [login to view URL] Kind regards / hjertelig hilsen /varma hälsningar Thiemo and family Listings ======== Reference farm ++++++++++++ [login to view URL] OpenStreetMap data ++++++++++++++++++ [login to view URL] Climate data ++++++++++ Norway (NetCDF among other formats): [login to view URL] (details can be found in the according [login to view URL] ([login to view URL]) file of the subversion repository) Norway precipitation (NetCDF): [login to view URL] Sweden (GDB ArcGIS?): [login to view URL] Crop plant list +++++++++++++++ - strawberry - raspberry - bramble - red currant - black currant - gooseberry - cloudberry - blueberry - kiwi - chokeberry - pumpkin - watermelon - muskmelon like piel de sapo - grape - banana - pineapple - French bean - climbing bean - bush bean - borlotti bean - kidney bean - tic bean - lentil - chickpea - cucumber - tomato - aubergine/eggplant - zucchini - radish - sweet potato - potato - wheat - einkorn wheat - spealt - rye - barley - oat - maize - chicory - lamb's lettuce - lettuce - rocket (Eruca sativa) - endive - watercress - spinach - lemon balm - mint - coriander - tarragon - dill - parsley - basil - savory - sage - rosemary - thyme - oregano - lovage - chives - ramson - leek - garlic - onion - hazel - sweet pepper - paprika/chilli - fennel - celeriac - celery - beetroot - carrot - sugar beet - May turnip - turnip cabbage/kohlrabi - white/green cabbage - red cabbage - broccoli - romanesco - cauliflower - Brussels sprout - colewort - Chinese cabbage - European beech tree - birch tree - oak tree - elm tree - ash tree - willow tree - spruce tree - silver fir tree - apple tree - pear tree - plum tree - greengage tree - mirabell tree - apricot tree - peach tree - nectarine tree - almond tree - citrus tree - olive tree - avocado tree - walnut tree - sweet chestnut tree
