H3 Atlas & Reference Assistant

The interactive H3 hexagonal workspace for reference agronomic indices is currently in pre-release calibration. Explore the structure of the 7 reference indices across our 4 pilot agro-ecological regions below.

Agronomic indices are for reference only, derived from FAO-56 formulas and open data. Not weather forecasts or official warnings.

Sample H3 cell 8765b566affffff 10.03°N · 105.78°E

Rice, fruit orchards and aquaculture; key indices: salinity and leaf wetness.

Live model inference is currently in pre-release calibration. Research institutes, cooperatives and public-good partners can request early pilot access by email.

7 reference agronomic indices per H3 cell

  • Root-zone soil moisture m³/m³ (ref)

    Estimated water available to crop roots, for reference.

    soil_moisture_root_zone
  • Reference evapotranspiration (ET0) mm/day (FAO-56)

    Atmospheric water demand by FAO-56 Penman-Monteith, in mm/day; the basis for crop water needs.

    et0_mm_day
  • Growing degree days °C·day (ref)

    Accumulated heat, linked to crop development stages.

    gdd_accumulated
  • Saltwater intrusion index 0–1 scale (ref)

    Reference index of conditions associated with saltwater intrusion.

    salinity_risk_index
  • Frost index 0–1 scale (ref)

    Reference index of conditions favourable to frost and cold spells.

    frost_risk_index
  • Leaf wetness hours hours (ref)

    Hours of wet foliage, associated with fungal disease conditions.

    leaf_wetness_hours
  • Crop stress index 3-colour band

    A combined reference signal of heat, water and weather stress on crops.
