Forestry and Agricultural Drone Photogrammetry Solutions

With the world population consuming more agricultural products for food, fuel, and textiles, precision agriculture has never been more critical. Fixed wing drones are the perfect tool to survey large crop acreage for pests, deficiencies, and damages. Using multi-spectral drone imagery, multiple layers of vegetation indicies can be generated in order to ensure that crop yields are at a maximum. When integrated with agricultural drone survey techniques, our systems help farmers and agronomists detect irrigation issues, nutrient deficiencies, and pest activity earlier. This proactive approach reduces waste, increases yields, and supports sustainable farming practices.

Capturing inventory data in forestry applications can certainly be done with UAVs with large area capability. With drone data, stockholders can more accurately know the amount of timber available by using point cloud data to measure trees per acre as well as the volume of trees in an area. By combining UAV capabilities with forestry mapping software, forestry managers can visualize changes over time, plan sustainable harvesting schedules, and even track wildlife habitats without disturbing the environment.
