credtis — google.comThe directions in which blockchain technology is evolving, health care holds a prominent position. And there are a number of good reasons for its prominence. Companies in healthcare and other industries are already testing waters and developing solutions on Blockchain.The MediLedger Project, backed by a group of companies that includes pharma giants Genentech and Pfizer, has successfully piloted a program that uses blockchain to track medicines. They aim to track the entire supply chain of medicine from the manufacturer uptill the patient.Blockchain technology is seeing great success in real-world applications that utilize supply chains.

Photo by Elijah O’Donell on UnsplashAs the news broke about Instagram hitting one billion monthly active users, I couldn’t help but create an account of my own and try to win myself some following.Given my keen interest in IT, however, I wished to take the opportunity to test some real-world applications of what I had been learning and do so (gain followers, that is) using a bot, instead of putting in all the tedious work.First thing I did was check for an Instagram API. To no avail, however, as it turned out to be a useless, outdated piece of software.And although Facebook has been releasing new Instagram API recently, they only support business clients.But hey, that’s no problem — I thought — I can create one of my own.And that is precisely what we will learn today.If you think about it, (...)

ESA’s SMOS mission was launched in 2009 to provide global observations of soil moisture and ocean salinity – two important variables in Earth’s water cycle. While this novel Earth Explorer satellite continues to advance our understanding of the planet, it is also showing considerable potential for real-world applications to improve everyday life. A number of these applications have been presented at the Living Planet Symposium in Prague in the Czech Republic. One example demonstrates how information from SMOS is being used to help forecast crop yield and to monitor drought.

With a growing population, the issue of food security is of global concern. Agricultural management and global food security can be more effective if crop yield is estimated accurately. Root-zone soil moisture data are now being used by the US Department of Agriculture in their crop-yield forecasting system.
