Abstract: In crop and livestock management within the framework of precision agriculture, scenarios full of sensors and devices are deployed, involving the generation of a large volume of data. Some solutions require rapid data exchange for action or anomaly detection. However, the administration of this large amount of data, which in turn evolves over time, is highly complicated. Management systems add long-time delays to the spatio-temporal data injection and gathering. This paper proposes a novel spatio-temporal semantic data model for agriculture. To validate the model, data from real livestock and crop scenarios, retrieved from the AFarCloud smart farming platform, are modeled according to the proposal. Time-series Database (TSDB) engine InfluxDB is used to evaluate the model against data management. In addition, an architecture for the management of spatio-temporal semantic agricultural data in real-time is proposed. This architecture results in the DAM&DQ system responsible for data management as semantic middleware on the AFarCloud platform. The approach of this proposal is in line with the EU data-driven strategy.
