Village facts

A one-time page from 31 Oct 2026 that is not updated. It has the official 2011 records and a satellite look at a 2.2 km square around the village.

This page is a one-time snapshot · 31 Oct 2026 · not updated. It comes from FarmBot's first look, before the exact fields were marked. That look used a 2.2 km square around the village and rough squares around the pond and the temple. The old pages are kept, unchanged, in the old snapshot. Only the two marked plots are updated each week.

One-time satellite look · a 2.2 km square

Green now, brown in March

FarmBot looked at a 2.2 km square around the village. On 21 Oct 2026 the average greenness score was 0.77, and 96% of the 10 m squares scored above 0.5. On 12 Mar 2026, in the dry season, it was 0.37 (18% above 0.5).

74% of the square got greener by more than 0.3 between the dry season and the monsoon. That is the pattern of one rain-fed crop a year, grown in the monsoon season. Seen by satellite

Satellite photo of the village square in normal colour — **How to read this:** this is how the area looks to the eye from space. Dark green is trees, lighter green is fields, and white or grey patches are cloud or buildings. Normal-colour photo, 21 Oct 2026.

Greenness map, recent — **How to read this:** green = leafy plants, yellow = thin plants, red = bare soil or no plants. Greenness map, 21 Oct 2026.

Greenness map, dry season — **How to read this:** same colours as the map beside it. In March most fields are bare, so the map is mostly red and yellow. Greenness map, 12 Mar 2026 (dry season).

Map of change in greenness — **How to read this:** orange areas got greener in the monsoon (mostly crop fields). Purple areas got less green. Change in greenness from the dry season to the monsoon.

Village greenness over time — **How to read this:** each dot is one photo. Higher means greener. Dots are low in the dry season and high in the monsoon. Greenness of the village square on every satellite photo, Oct 2025 – Oct 2026.

The map was made in 2021 from 10 m squares, so it doesn't show later changes.

A wider view (just an idea). A crop map for all of Nilabadi or other villages could later be offered to others as a paid service. It would show each field's green-up and harvest timing, and pond water. Nothing is offered yet.
