Thanks Ben, That's a good point re: accuracy. But absolute position within a few meters may be OK, if the relative position is maintained. Vine rows are generally visible on imagery and could be mapped that way. It's also not unusual for a vineyard to survey their rows with high accuracy GPS.
About usefulness to farmers... this mapping initiative is coming from the viticulture community, so I have to assume they have reasons to find it useful. If those reasons are compelling enough, they'll probably be the ones doing much of the mapping... and if in the end it doesn't prove to be useful then it probably won't go very far.
