did anyone else see last weekends "BBC Click" tech show ?
There was an interesting article on the programme about using live satellite imagery of vineyards etc, that measured leaf density, giving a live colour picture (a bit like something you might see from a colour thermal imaging camera), so that for the best wine results, the grapes were picked from the red/orange area in the picture and other qualities of wines from the grape in different areas of the vineyards.
The link is here, but I don't know how long it'll be valid for. The programme was originally available on the 1st, and some of the BBC stuff only stays up for a week or two......
You don't need to watch the whole programme, the article is in the first 2 or 3 minutes.
For all you grape wine makers (especially those who like to do the grapefest thing), I'd have thought it might be of interest.....
Ha! Even I thought it was an interesting article and god knows, I don't make grape wines......
