Weedmapping with “Magic Tool”
Going off a similar principal to Green on Brown weed mapping, Pix4D Field’s “Magic Tool”is another great feature becoming utilized in the spray drone world. The Magic tool uses AI to Detect weeds of similar colour for spot spraying applications. By using Red, Blue and Green (RGB) map imagery, special boundary layers are created designating […]
Green on Brown Weed Mapping
The concept of weed mapping is a relatively new one! and there are many programs now days that can perform Green on Brown mapping, but for me Pix4D Fields is the one that made the biggest impression on me. So how is Green on Brown weed mapping performed? well firstly the area to be treated […]
NDVI vs NDRE how does it effect VRA?
Multispectral analysis plays a key role in determining what treatments are required. With Variable Rate Applications, plant indexes are used to create unique prescription maps for the spray drone to follow. So which plant index is used? and at what time? The Normalised Difference Vegitation index or NDVI, is the most commonly known and for […]
Map Reconstruction with DJI’s Terra
Mapping a site for aerial application is a great way to speed up the planning stage, especially for large complex sites! Many people have asked the question, so what happens after you have mapped the site? There are basically 4 steps when it comes to flight planning with mapping drones. Each step is incredibly important […]
Our Mavic 3 Multispectral
Flight planning a jobsite for aerial application is a very important and sometimes challenging task! Especially when there are alot of obstacles, rough terrain, sensative areas and steep slopes. Most of those things used to make me cringe, because all I had was a base station and GPS rover which involved walking the entire site. […]
Aerial Application for Large sites
The automated flight modes available on our DJI T40 application drone, are only suited for small to medium size projects. Larger sites require more substancial planning, which can only come from the intergration of a mapping drone. Fortunately DJI has a very smooth workflow, which makes flight planning large complex sites so much easier! With […]
Drone Mapping for Aerial Application
Most Spray drones use GPS Guidance to perform automated missions and precise flight paths. This amazing technology allows for less product wastage because you can see exactly where the product has been applied. Also with higher precision the product is applied more evenly. The DJI AGRAS T40 has some amazing automated functions ranging from semi-auto […]
