衛星如何支持非洲各地的農民

超過 8000 顆衛星繞地球運行，每天拍照。糧食安全專家兼 TED 研究員凱瑟琳·納卡勒姆貝（Catherine Nakalembe）將展示她如何利用這些圖像幫助非洲各地的小農戶應對洪水、乾旱和作物歉收。了解為什麼真正的創新並不總是關乎更酷炫的技術——而是讓科技真正契合其所要解決的問題。

Satellites scan Earth daily, but their data often misses the real complexities of African farms. In Kenya, two teams gathered five million images in two weeks with GoPros to train smarter models that actually reflect on-the-ground realities. By tailoring technology to local needs, accurate crop maps now help direct aid fast after disasters like the 2024 floods. Real progress comes not from flashy tools, but from making innovation fit the lives it aims to help.

Satellites Alone Can’t Solve Africa’s Farming Crisis

Farmers across Africa face devastating threats like droughts, pests, and floods, sometimes risking the food security of entire generations. Over 8,000 satellites capture daily images of Earth, but their data often misrepresents small, diverse farms. Accurate insights only emerge when technology is adapted to local realities, combining space imagery with on-the-ground evidence. Real impact comes from transforming high-tech tools to fit farmers’ actual needs.
