Image Processing
Using autonomous drones with multispectral cameras to analyze crop health.
Technical Details
An autonomous drone flies pre-programmed routes over a farm, capturing multispectral imagery. The images are processed to calculate vegetation indices like NDVI, which indicate crop health and stress levels. A web platform stitches the images together to create detailed health maps of the fields. This allows farmers to identify problem areas, optimize fertilizer and water application, and improve crop yields.
