Aaron Ault works on digital tools and data systems for agriculture, including data-sharing frameworks that let farm equipment and software from different companies work together, video analysis for automating farm equipment tasks, and statistical methods for mapping field productivity zones. Some work also extends into broader environmental and geological modeling, such as watershed rainfall analysis and paleogeography databases. This research combines computer science and data engineering methods with practical agricultural applications.
