Precision agriculture technologies based on satellite remote sensing remain largely inaccessible to smallholder farmers in developing countries due to technical complexity, cost barriers, and infrastructure demands. This study presents the design and implementation of an open-source, web-based platform for processing Sentinel-2 Level-2A imagery tailored to the specific needs of family farming systems. The platform integrates a FastAPI backend for geospatial data processing with a Next.js frontend providing simplified tools for spectral index computation (NDVI, EVI, SAVI, NDWI, NDBI), crop classification using supervised and unsupervised machine learning, and interactive 2D/3D visualization. A laboratory module implements thirteen digital image processing techniques—including Gaussian filtering, edge detection, morphological operations, and thresholding—for educational and comparative analysis. The browser-based system eliminates installation requirements and automates key workflows such as coordinate reprojection, JP2 band extraction, and statistical evaluation. Validation using ground-truth data from coffee and soybean fields in the Brazilian Cerrado achieved classification accuracies above 85% and correlation coefficients exceeding 0.90 for biomass estimation based on NDVI-derived metrics. The platform contributes to the democratization of remote sensing technologies and enhances accessibility of precision agriculture tools for smallholder farmers.
