Agricultural Drones : From Detection to Diagnosis with Crop Mapping
Data capture is near real-time and on demand with agricultural drones. There is not a remote sensing platform that is innately better at all things: satellites, manned aircraft, and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) all fill a unique niche where they excel. Satellite data acquisition is nearly passive and allows for comparison of long-term trends. Manned aircraft are very cost-effective for larger acreages. UAVs (let’s just call them drones, shall we?) have as their key advantages: data capture is near real-time and on demand imagery can be extremely high resolution newest-generation…
