Drones in Agriculture and Farming

Drones have a wide range of applications in agriculture. One of the main benefits of drones in farming is their ability to gather data quickly and accurately. This information can be used to optimize crop yields, identify areas of pest infestation, and monitor plant health. Drones can also be used to apply fertilizers and pesticides precisely, reducing the amount of chemicals needed and minimizing environmental damage. Overall, drones are a valuable tool for modern farming, offering increased efficiency, accuracy, and productivity.

More Informed Planning

The time invested in planning pays off year after year. Up-to-date and detailed aerial imagery of your land is priceless. Drone farm surveying can create these images for you in a fraction of the time, so you can plan with confidence and move on to the next phase.

Clear images simplify road and access planning and help you use your land efficiently. Up-to-date images are invaluable in boundary disputes. Our topographic maps of your property make it easier to plan crops, paddocks, drainage and irrigation. When you know the lay of the land, you can irrigate more efficiently and avoid flooding. We take care of this in a single flight, streamlining the process.

Reduce Crop Failure

Aerial photographs show variations in health and density that aren't visible from a human perspective. Inspection efficiency allows for more frequent crop monitoring. Our drone is equipped with a high-resolution camera that capture detailed images without endangering crops. Intervention before health is poor enough to be visible from the ground often saves entire areas of crops from failure.

Multispectral imaging provides information about the health of plants, and can detect pests or diseases. Fertilisation is also more efficient when you can pinpoint exactly where it's needed. With multispectral imaging we can detect pests and diseases before the situation is bad enough to be obvious.

Agricultural Drone Surveys

Agricultural drone surveys have many benefits for farmers and agriculture professionals. Firstly, they can quickly and accurately collect data about crop health, soil moisture, and plant growth, allowing farmers to make informed decisions about irrigation, fertilization, and pest management. Secondly, drones can cover large areas of land in a short amount of time, reducing the need for manual labour and increasing efficiency. Additionally, drone surveys can detect and identify crop diseases, allowing farmers to take proactive measures to prevent the spread of disease and increase yields. Finally, drone surveys can also assist in monitoring livestock and managing water resources, making them a valuable tool for sustainable agriculture practices.

Farm GPS Mapping

Farm GPS mapping is a technology that uses Global Positioning System (GPS) to map out and track various aspects of a farm. The benefits of this technology are many. For instance, it allows farmers to accurately measure and manage their fields, making it easier to track crop growth and monitor soil health. Additionally, it helps farmers to save time and resources by optimizing the use of fertilizers and other inputs. This, in turn, reduces the cost of production and increases yield. Furthermore, farm GPS mapping provides farmers with detailed records of their farm activities, making it easier to make informed decisions and plan for the future. Overall, the use of farm GPS mapping is an excellent tool that helps farmers to increase their productivity and profitability while also promoting sustainable farming practices.

Multispectral Imaging

Our multispectral imaging technology is an advanced technique that utilizes drones to capture high-resolution images of your land in various spectral bands. These images provide valuable information about the health and vigour of your crops by revealing subtle differences in reflectance across different bands. By analysing these images, we can detect stress factors in your crops such as disease, nutrient deficiencies, and water stress, allowing for timely interventions to maximize yield and minimize losses. Additionally, our technology allows for accurate weed detection and mapping, which enables the precise application of herbicides, thereby reducing the use of harmful chemicals.

LIDAR

Lidar, which stands for Light Detection and Ranging, is a remote sensing technology that uses lasers to measure distances and create highly accurate 3D maps of terrain and objects. Lidar can be used to accurately map farmland and provide highly detailed topographic data. This can help farmers better understand the terrain and make informed decisions about where to plant crops and how to manage water and soil resources. Overall, lidar technology offers farmers a powerful tool for improving efficiency and maximizing yields.
