Share Agricultural Images for Better Weed Detection
Upload field photos, add crop details, and contribute to open datasets that train smarter farming tools. Built by farmers and researchers for the agricultural community.
The Complete Open Ecosystem
From hardware in the field to AI in the cloud. Everything you need for precision weed management, openly available.
Open Hardware
DIY weed detection devices built on Raspberry Pi. Affordable, hackable, and designed for real farm conditions.
OpenWeedLocatorOpen Software
Green-on-brown detection algorithms that run in real-time. Simple enough to modify, powerful enough for production.
View on GitHubOpen Data
Every photo tells a story. Capture date, location, crop type, growth stage - these details make your images useful for research and AI training.
Noktura PlatformAI Models
Train and deploy weed detection models. From simple green detection to advanced deep learning, tuned for your conditions.
Coming SoonFull circle: Farmers capture images in the field, share data on Noktura, researchers train better models, those models improve OWL devices, and farmers benefit from more accurate detection. Everyone wins.
Why Upload Your Images?
Your field photos are more valuable than you think

Access Open Datasets
Download community datasets from different regions and crop types
Why Locally-Driven Technology?
Agriculture is local. Weeds, crops, and conditions vary by region. Technology that works everywhere needs data from everywhere.
Fits Every Niche
From broadacre wheat to specialty vegetables, from dry Australian plains to wet European fields. Local data trains models that work in your conditions.
Farmer-Friendly
Technology should adapt to farmers, not the other way around. Simple interfaces, practical defaults, and designs tested in real field conditions with sun glare and dirty hands.
Community-Owned
No vendor lock-in. No subscription traps. Open source means the community controls the technology, and improvements benefit everyone.
