Our research shows how digital twins are useful for detecting inconsistencies in agricultural weather data measurements, which are key attributes for various agricultural decision-making and automation tasks. We develop a modular framework named Cerealia that allows end-users to check for data inconsistencies when perfect weather feeds are unavailable. Cerealia uses neural network models to check anomalies and aids end-users in informed decision-making. We develop a prototype of Cerealia using the NVIDIA Jetson Orin platform and test it with an operational weather network established in a commercial orchard as well as publicly available weather datasets.
