Abstract
This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the architecture required to implement selective weeding in arable farming, as developed within the Cognitive Weeding project. This end-to-end architecture begins with data acquisition utilizing drones, robots, or agricultural machinery, followed by data management, AI-based data annotation, knowledge-based inference to determine the necessary treatment, resulting in an application map for selective hoeing. The paper meticulously details the various components of the architecture and illustrates through examples how they are interconnected.
