Abstract

Recently, the agriculture is undergoing a technical drift in both innovation and technology. As a result, we have vertical farming which helps to increase the rate of food production tremendously, with the appropriate environmental factors in middle of the urban areas. Many researches have been undergone in the agricultural environment, which mainly focused on the smart services in the u-agriculture environment. Ubiquitous computing is one of the major developing technology in this fast evolving pervasive environment. Building a context aware system for the vertical farm is still complex without the shared understanding of the domains which can also be referred as set of entities, relations, functions and services. To resolve this issue, we propose the OWL based ontology model which defines the relationship between the domain factors that helps in both monitoring and controlling services of vertical farm. We have classified the basic concepts for the vertical farm environment which can be extended according to the domain of interest.
